CB140 Compact Brute Connector

Several black electrical connectors with a cable bundle on a white surface.

Developed for use as a rugged-test floor interconnect, the Compact Brute series connector allows for design flexibility with up to 140 pins on a 4x35 matrix.


The pins can be configured as signals, grounds or power up to 1.7A/pin. For lower performance applications a typical configuration could be 32 signals and 3 grounds on three rows for a total of 96 signals and 9 grounds.The remaining 35 pins could be power supply.

CB-140 Rugged Interconnect

Black rectangular electrical connector with numerous pins, two cable leads, Joy Signal Technology logo.

Developed for use as a rugged-test floor interconnect, the Compact Brute series connector allows for design flexibility with up to 140 pins on a 4×35 matrix. The pins can be configured as signals, grounds or power up to 1.7A. For lower performance applications a typical configuration could be 32 signals and 3 grounds on three rows for a total of 96 signals and 9 grounds. The remaining 35 pins could be power supply.


For a higher performance application each row can be configured in a sig/gnd/sig/gnd repeating pattern with 17 signals and 18 grounds per row or a connector total of 68 single-ended signals. Differential signals running on shielded-twisted pair or shielded-parallel pair are also possible with this connector.


All cable end connectors are female. There are board-mounted headers available in vertical male, right-angle male, vertical female and rightangle female configurations. The female board connectors are for boardto- board connection in conjunction with the male-board connectors.
