TE's Buchanan WireMate two-piece poke-in connector series provide designers a three directional solution for wall mounting a device and improve the overall installation experience even for the novice installer. The wires could be routed through an opening in the wall to the connector mounted on a wall plate. The wires are stripped of insulation and easily poked into the terminal block device providing a reliable termination without the need for tooling. Wire extracting is also made easy with simple levers to release individual wires. The mating header is surface mount attached to the PCB in the device to be mounted on the wall. The two-piece combination allows wall mounting of a device in three different directions; into the wall, along the wall and in a twist or rotating motion.

• 2mm panel thickness, 10mm height (from wall plate to PCB)
• 18-24 AWG (solid); 18-22 AWG (stranded*)
• Ideal to use for thermostats, smoke detectors, control panels, environmental monitors
• Improve installation experience with three mating directions
• Allows easy wiring for home installation with tool-less poke-in wire termination
• Provides flat connector surface reserved for wire marking
