The active trunk and drop cabling solution reduces the cost of commercial and utility-scale PV systems.

The DC cabling solution reduces the cost of commercial and utility-scale PV systems. Customers receive the full benefits of the unique active trunk and drop cabling solution when it is deployed with Amphenol's ModLink junction box. Comprised of one major cable conductor with a number of smaller cables connected to a PV panel, the new assembly allows for up to 40% more modules-per-string as well as lower current carrying requirements. Ampt's integrated "smart technology" monitors power generation, ground faults and fire protection on the assembly.
