Back panel connector Harting 09 04 232 6821 90° angle

Harting back panel connector 09 04 232 6821 at a 90° angle provides a compact right-angle interface for passing cable connections through the rear panel of an enclosure. Designed for panel mounting, this connector positions cable routing parallel to the panel plane, which helps reduce protrusion into the installation space while allowing accessible mating and maintenance from the cabinet interior or exterior.

Advantages

This right-angle back panel connector reduces space requirements behind the panel and simplifies cable management by directing cables alongside the enclosure. The robust construction ensures stable mechanical connection and improved strain relief for attached cables. The design facilitates easier access for mating/unmating in confined installations and supports tidy routing that can improve serviceability.

Suitable for

• Industrial enclosures and control cabinets where rear-panel cable routing at 90° is required
• Applications with limited depth behind the panel or where reduced cable protrusion is needed
• Equipment requiring secure panel-mounted interfaces for external cabling and periodic maintenance

Key specifications

• Mounting type: back panel / panel-mounted, right-angle (90°)
• Orientation: 90° cable exit relative to mating face
• Construction: metal/plastic housing designed for mechanical stability (manufacturer standard)
• Cable routing: lateral exit to minimize depth behind panel and improve strain relief
• Application environment: suitable for industrial and enclosure installations requiring panel feed-through

How to use

Install the connector into the prepared cutout in the enclosure rear panel and secure it according to the panel mounting method specified by the equipment design. Route the cable through the connector so that the outlet follows the 90° orientation, then complete internal and external terminations or mating with the corresponding counterpart. Ensure mechanical fastening and any required sealing or strain-relief accessories are fitted to maintain connection reliability under operating conditions.

Recommendations

Verify the panel cutout dimensions and mounting orientation before installation, and select compatible mating connectors or housings to ensure correct mechanical and electrical engagement. Use appropriate strain relief and, where necessary, environmental sealing to match the installation's required ingress protection and vibration resistance.
