Molex CP-4.5 Wire-to-Wire Connectors

Molex CP-4.5 Wire-to-Wire Connectors combine superior locking with fool-proof keyed, color-coded, and polarized mating. Molex CP-4.5 Wire-to-Wire Connectors feature a positive-lock latch design, eliminating incomplete mating and interlocking of plug and receptacle. The series also has a positive inertia lock, delivering an audible mating click, latch protection, and secure terminal and mating retention. An integral beam supports both ends of the connector housing to prevent wire-snagging, and polarization keys on housing ribs prevent mis-mating. The wide spectrum of housing colors provides quick identification of mating combinations. CP-4.5 is ideal for various consumer, industrial, and power applications.
