Sidney, N.Y. April 2011 – Amphenol Industrial, a global leader in interconnect systems, now offers the Helios H4 Panel Connector, a panel mount photovoltaic (PV) connector featuring RADSOK technology. This new connector offers higher current ratings and lower contact resistance resulting in lower power losses and is compatible with standard industry connectors, including Amphenol’s Helios H4 line, for easy integration.

Amphenol’s new H4 Panel Connector, developed to help feed power from a solar panel into an inverter or combiner box, features quick snap lock mating for easy panel mount installation and termination to either box.
