Why Choose the Ilme CX20SIF Female Shielded MIXO Modular Insert?
The Ilme CX20SIF is a high-density female 20-pole shielded modular insert designed for low-voltage signal and data connections within Ilme MIXO heavy-duty connector systems. Combining 20 crimp contact positions plus a shield connection in a compact one-module format, it is well suited to industrial applications requiring numerous signal circuits within limited connector space.
Rated at 4 A and 32 V, the CX20SIF uses separately ordered female crimp contacts and provides a rated impulse withstand voltage of 0.8 kV. Its integrated zinc-alloy shield is electrically separated from the PE circuit of the MIXO frame, distinguishing the CX20SIF from the CX20SIGF variant, which provides shield-to-PE frame contact.
Designed for demanding industrial service, the CX20SIF features a durable polycarbonate body, UL 94 V-0 flammability classification and an operating temperature range of -40 °C to +85 °C. A mechanical life of at least 500 mating cycles supports repeatable connection and disconnection in machinery, automation and control applications.

High-Density Shielded Signal Connectivity
The CX20SIF combines 20 low-voltage circuits and a shield connection within a single MIXO module, providing a space-efficient solution for industrial control, instrumentation and communication wiring. Its shielding arrangement is particularly useful where sensitive circuits need additional protection from electromagnetic interference generated by motors, drives, switching equipment and other industrial electrical loads.
In the CX20SIF configuration, the shield is electrically separated from the protective-earth circuit of the MIXO frame. Compatible contacts are ordered separately, allowing the contact specification to be selected for the required conductors. The module can then be combined with other compatible MIXO inserts to create a customised heavy-duty connector interface incorporating signal, data, power or other services.
Typical Applications
- Industrial control and signal connections.
- Factory automation systems.
- PLC and distributed I/O interfaces.
- Instrumentation and sensor circuits.
- Robotics and automated handling equipment.
- Production and packaging machinery.
- Shielded low-voltage data and communication circuits.
- OEM machinery requiring high-density modular connections.
