designed primarily for field installation, repair, maintenance work, or
prototyping in industrial, commercial, or institutional applications. Product

the appropriate 114 application specification, but may not comply with other
feature parameters of the specification. Tyco Electronics offers a variety of
tools to satisfy your performance requirements. For additional information,
