Switchcraft DC Power Connectors - BKZ Series

The mechanism offers clear tactile feedback for easy and intuitive operation. The BKZ series can carry up to 5A and has a 250VAC dielectric withstanding voltage rating. It’s offered with two-pin sizes, and the right-angle jacks are available with through-hole, surface-mount, or hybrid mounting styles.
The jacks can also accept standard plugs for broader compatibility, and the connectors are rated for 5000 mating cycles.
