In summary, the 3M™ SCR System is a robust, vibration resistant interconnect solution. The ribbon-style contacts are capable of carrying either signal or power, up to 1A per pin, and wire up to AWG 18 can be accommodated and terminated using solder without the need for special tooling. Also, a latching mechanism permits quick attach and release while the metal shell protects the wire/contact termination interface from EMI. Finally, although the 3M brand SCR System has been optimized for use in factory automation equipment, its advantages over alternative interconnects makes this a viable candidate as a general purpose, shielded I/O.
