Three-Step Selection Rhyme
TweetPush-pull self-locking Series B vs. Series K, 3 steps to choose without pitfalls

 

1.Check the scenario

Indoor/cabinet: Series B with IP50 is sufficient and budget-friendly.

Outdoor/rain-exposed: Series K comes with IP68, capable of submerging once mated.

 

2.Check the size

Spacious environment, needing 2–32 cores for mixed power + signal installation: Choose Series B.

Miniature devices, endoscopes, drones: Series K starts at 3.5 mm, reducing weight by 30%.

 

3.Check the performance

High-frequency 4K/8K: Series K stably supports 10 Gbps.

High current: Series B offers optional metal housing with gold-plated contacts, easily handling 30 A per core.

One-sentence summary
"For indoor versatility, choose B; for outdoor and miniature use, choose K; first determine the scenario, then verify parameters, push-pull self-locking gets it right in one step."

Pitfall warnings

 

If the device requires waterproofing even when "unmated", an additional watertight socket of Series K is needed.

High-frequency signals must add a shielding suffix (e.g., Series 00).

For vacuum or pressure vessels, be sure to select the vacuum-sealed version and conduct a helium leak test.

Summary
"Choose B for indoor cost savings, choose K for outdoor weather resistance; push-pull to mate, locked and reliable!"
