CA3106E20-22S-B-F80 ITT Cannon 6-Position CA Bayonet Plug
CA3106E20-22S-B-F80 is a six-position straight cable plug from the ITT Cannon CA Bayonet series. The 20-22 contact arrangement combines three size 8 socket contacts with three size 16 socket contacts, allowing higher-current power circuits and lower-current control circuits to share one circular connector.
The connector uses AWG crimp contacts, a reverse-bayonet coupling mechanism and an environmental construction with resilient inserts. Its straight endbell includes a cable clamp and telescoping bushing for cable retention.
CA Bayonet connectors are based on established MIL-C-5015 contact arrangements and were developed in accordance with VG95234 requirements. They are commonly installed in industrial vehicles, railway equipment, construction machinery, military ground systems and other equipment exposed to vibration, moisture and mechanical shock.
Core Advantages
Hybrid contact arrangement combines three 74A power circuits and three 22A control circuits
Reverse-bayonet locking provides fast mating and resistance to loosening under vibration
Environmental straight-plug construction includes cable clamp, endbell and telescoping bushing

Contact Arrangement
The 20-22 insert contains six socket contacts divided into two sizes.
| Contact group | Quantity | Contact size | Typical wire size | Current rating |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Power contacts | 3 | Size 8 | 8 AWG | 74 A |
| Control contacts | 3 | Size 16 | 18/16 AWG | 22 A |
This mixed arrangement is useful when equipment requires three high-current phases or DC power lines together with auxiliary control, monitoring or interlock circuits.
Possible circuit assignments include:
Three-phase motor power plus control signals
DC positive, negative and protective-earth conductors plus auxiliary circuits
Generator power output plus monitoring contacts
Heater power plus temperature or safety interlock signals
Actuator power plus position-feedback circuits
The final contact assignment should be defined on the cable or equipment wiring drawing.
Mating Connector Selection
CA3106E20-22S-B-F80 is a plug fitted with female socket contacts. Its mating connector must use the same 20-22 insert arrangement with male pin contacts.
Common mating styles include:
| Mating model | Connector type |
|---|---|
| CA3100E20-22P-B-F80 | Wall-mount receptacle with male pin contacts |
| CA3102E20-22P-B-F80 | Box-mount receptacle with male pin contacts |
| CA3101E20-22P-B-F80 | Cable-connecting receptacle with male pin contacts |
The final mating part number may differ according to contact supply, endbell, panel mounting, shell finish, polarization and environmental requirements.
Typical Applications
CA3106E20-22S-B-F80 is suitable for mixed power and control connections in:
Three-phase motors
Industrial drives
Mobile generators
Railway equipment
Construction machinery
Agricultural vehicles
Military ground vehicles
Battery and charging systems
Pumps and compressors
Mobile hydraulic systems
Heavy-duty actuators
