XT30 Connector Pair

High-Performance Compact Power Connection

The DFRobot XT30 Male and Female Connector Pair delivers a compact, low-resistance power interconnect solution ideal for space-constrained electronics, custom robotics, unmanned aerial vehicles, and embedded power distribution setups. Designed to replace bulky power plugs without compromising current delivery, this plug set provides high conductivity and dependable mechanical latching in a miniature footprint.

Precision Engineering and Superior Conductivity

Featuring precision-machined solid copper contacts plated with pure gold, the XT30 connectors feature an advanced cross-slot banana plug interface. This structural design maximizes contact surface area to achieve an ultra-low contact resistance of only 0.70 milliohms. Capable of handling a continuous DC load of 15A and peak instantaneous currents up to 30A at up to 500V DC, this connector pair reduces power loss and prevents thermal degradation during operation.

Robust Safety and Flame-Retardant Construction

The protective housing is molded from tough Polyamide insulating polymer rated to UL94 V-0 flame retardancy. In the event of extreme electrical overload or thermal spikes, the self-extinguishing housing resists combustion and stops burning once removed from a flame source. Capable of enduring up to 1000 mating cycles and operating reliably across temperatures ranging from -20 degrees C to 120 degrees C, these connectors offer dependable safety and long service life.

Versatile Hardware Application Use-Cases

Optimized for soldering to 18AWG wiring, the XT30 pair is widely utilized in sub-250g FPV quadcopters, small mobile robot power rails, battery management system interfaces, custom LiPo battery pack assembly, and high-density power distribution boards (PDBs). Its lightweight and anti-reverse polarity shape protect sensitive microcontrollers and motor drivers from accidental reverse wiring.
