The Keysight/Agilent/HP 1252-6533A is a set of 160 DIN 41612 crimp connector pins engineered for rack-based electrical systems and Eurocard applications. These pins terminate directly to individual wires via crimp connection, eliminating soldering and press-fit assembly steps. Manufactured to the DIN 41612 standard (now superseded by IEC 60603-2 and EN 60603-2), they deliver the proven reliability demanded in VMEbus, NuBus, machinery automation, and railway installations.
