TE Connectivity AMP’s CoolSplice connectors, supplied by Digi-Key Electronics, combine reliability with ease of termination. The popularity of inline connectors has increased as space becomes more limited and, as a result, the ability to make safe, reliable connections is compromised. It is a more secure replacement for the butt splice/crimp splice type of wire connection. It is also used in lighting applications, wire extension applications, and through connections with limited space. Typical applications include power distribution on aircraft, military ground vehicles and seaborn systems in harsh environments. The inline splice connector can be used for multiple functions and applications. Splices provide a way to incorporate system modifications into a wire bundle, while avoiding changes in panels or circuit boards. Uses range from repairing a single damaged wire, to modifying an analog circuit with components including fuses, resistors, diodes, capacitors, and inductors in order to adapt replacement systems. Single and dual wire splices meet MIL-T-81714 requirements and are highly resistant to temperature and fluids. Inline splices are designed to provide a quick and efficient solution to customer wiring requirements.

Inline splice connectors are used to connect two physical cables or to split an existing cable into two separate entities while maintaining signal continuity between them.
