All of the contacts remain fullyfunctional, and electrical characteristics such as capacitance arenot effected.Product Features:• Connector envelope identical to unprotected design formost applications• Exceeds protection requirements of IEC 801-2 andMIL-STD-1686:• Ensures that all components within a conductive enclosurewill be sub jected to a maximum of 10V during electrostaticdischarges between –26 KV and +26 KV• Voltage observed on contacts during ESD events –
