The TA209 is used as a standard interface for a switch cabinet to connect TEWS modules with a 50-pin Mini D Ribbon Connector with other system devices. The MDR50 Terminal Block is therefore an essential wiring interface for prototyping and in the same way for machine and peripheral equipment.
The TA209 has a universal socket and may simply mount on standard EM mounting rails as a compact terminal strip. The screw connections of the used terminal block have a nominal cross section of 2.5 mm².
An additional screw connector provides a possibility to connect the shield of the 50pin male MDR type connector to external case ground.
