Mini Field-Attachable Connectors
The Mini-C connector is used on thick backbones, heavy cable
The Micro-C connector is used on thin backbones, light cable
Each cable uses different wire gauges for the different signal lines.
The power lines are 22AWG for the light version and 16AWG for the heavy version.
The signal lines are 24AWG for the light version and 18AWG for the heavy version.
Maximum current is also defined as 3 amps for the light version and 8 amps for the heavy version.
The current difference indicate why one user might prefer a thick backbone over a thin one.
Field-attachable connections allow you to make field connections to bulk cable.
The color-coded screw terminals match the individual wire colors found within the bulk cables for error-free field installation
