  • This adapter can only be disassembled from one side of the panel.
  • a disadvantage of this adapter is that the mounting of the clip and the shape and dimensions of the hooks do not allow, for a given clip, to obtain a fixation in a relatively wide range of panel thicknesses.
  • Another major disadvantage is that the effort of maintaining the adapter on the panel applied by the clip is low because directly related to the intrinsic flexibility of the latter. Such a low maintenance effort can be risky in case of severe mechanical stress, such as significant vibration or significant tensile stress on the connector.
  • the patent application US 200310114044 discloses a multi-contact connector base attached to a panel by inserting the housing in the opening of the panel so as to have the two lower fastening hooks integral with the housing resting on the front face of the panel and then deformation of the two fastening hooks upper elastically deformable.
