CBTH00BG Push-Pull Connector for Dental Intraoral Cameras 2026: 00B Series 4-Contact Elbow Plug for Compact Dental Imaging Systems

The CBTH00BG-SMSM04-D270 is a CBTH00BG push-pull connector for dental intraoral cameras — a compact 4-contact elbow plug from the 00B series with four low-voltage contacts, PPS UL94 V-0 insulation, a 2 A rated current, AWG 34–28 conductor support and a cable jacket diameter of approximately 2.3–2.7 mm. Every specification in this guide is backed by the miniature medical imaging interconnect engineering of Spring Technology.

Pain point: Fitting a reliable electrical interface onto a dental intraoral camera — where the camera head must stay small enough to work inside a patient’s mouth, the cable is repositioned constantly during examination, and cable assemblies are replaced during servicing?

Core answer: Spring Technology supplies the CBTH00BG-SMSM04-D270, a 00B series elbow plug serving as a CBTH00BG push-pull connector for dental intraoral cameras. A dental intraoral camera is used by dentists to capture detailed images of teeth, gums and other structures inside the patient’s mouth, displayed on a computer or dental imaging workstation for examination, diagnosis support, treatment planning and patient communication. Compared with conventional desktop imaging equipment, an intraoral camera needs a very compact camera head and flexible cable assembly, and the cable is frequently repositioned by the dental professional during examination — making the connector’s size and mechanical connection particularly important. The 00B series miniature form factor with an elbow plug configuration and four low-voltage contacts supports power and signal functions according to the equipment architecture.

This dental camera connector is built on the 00B series miniature push-pull platform, Spring Technology’s smallest circular connector family for compact, high-density equipment.

• Latching Mechanism: Push-pull self-latching mechanism (quick mating and unmating without threaded coupling)
• Recommended Hardware: Spring Technology Circular Connector
• Key Metric: 00B miniature body; 4 low-voltage contacts; 2 A rated current; max. 8.7 mΩ contact resistance

Intraoral imaging pushes connector miniaturisation to its limits. The design advantages below explain why this CBTH00BG push-pull connector for dental intraoral cameras suits compact dental equipment:

• An intraoral camera must be small enough to be positioned comfortably inside a patient’s mouth, and a large connector or rigid cable interface makes the camera handle harder to integrate. The miniature 00B series keeps a compact connection interface while retaining a metal push-pull connector design, making connector size a decisive advantage in dental imaging equipment.

• Depending on the system architecture, the four low-voltage contacts can be allocated to power, signal, control, reference or other low-voltage circuits. Integrating multiple electrical functions into one miniature connector reduces cable count and external interfaces, contributing to a cleaner camera assembly and simpler cable routing.

• Dental imaging equipment may require cables or camera assemblies to be disconnected during maintenance, replacement or servicing. The push-pull self-latching mechanism allows quick mating and unmating without rotating a threaded coupling, making camera cable replacement more convenient while helping prevent accidental cable release during normal handling.

• As an elbow plug with cable collet rather than a straight plug, the connector suits cable exits at a controlled angle — reducing the overall cable loop, keeping the cable closer to the equipment housing, improving handle ergonomics, reducing mechanical interference around the camera and creating a cleaner cable assembly.

• With a specified cable jacket diameter of approximately 2.3–2.7 mm, a small cable assembly stays flexible while the operator moves the camera around the patient’s mouth. Connector and cable selection should be considered together, since flexibility depends on conductor construction, insulation, shielding, jacket material and overall cable design.

• A maximum specified contact resistance of 8.7 mΩ helps maintain stable electrical characteristics at the connector interface, supporting reliable power and signal connections between the camera module and external electronics. The signal integrity of an imaging system overall depends on the complete interconnect architecture — cable construction, grounding, shielding, PCB layout and signal processing.

• The connector uses a PPS insulator, a high-performance engineering polymer commonly used in demanding connector applications. For compact electronic imaging equipment, a high-performance insulating material provides a robust electrical interface while supporting the small form factor.

• A 2 A rated current provides sufficient capacity for many compact camera power and auxiliary circuits. The actual current loading should always be evaluated according to the number of simultaneously loaded contacts, ambient temperature, cable characteristics and the complete equipment design.

• The 00B series is designed around miniature circular connector requirements and high packing density — useful in dental imaging systems where space around the camera electronics and cable interface is limited, letting engineers position the interface closer to other components without a large external footprint.

The 00B shell is Spring Technology’s smallest push-pull circular connector family, designed for smaller, lighter equipment while maintaining reliable power and signal connectivity. The same platform serves this dental camera connector and scales across plug and socket variants.

• Shell: 00B miniature shell size with high packing density.
• Pin counts: 2, 3 and 4 contacts on the 00B shell.
• Connectors: straight plugs (including bend relief versions), elbow plugs (this order) and fixed sockets.
• Termination: solder termination with cable collet and cable openings from 1.1 mm to 3.4 mm across the platform.

• Custom contact allocations and part numbers (such as the CBTH00BG-SMSM04-D270) matched to each camera’s power and signal plan.
• Cable assembly design for the required jacket diameter and flexibility.
• Elbow and straight plug selection for the camera handle geometry.
• Pre-wired intraoral camera and workstation harnesses.

Dental imaging depends on an interface that disappears inside the handle. This CBTH00BG push-pull connector for dental intraoral cameras serves the camera-to-workstation chain.

The miniature elbow plug links the camera module to its processing or control unit, with the elbow routing keeping the cable close to the handle.

Power, signal and control circuits share the 4-contact layout with a 2 A rating and 8.7 mΩ maximum contact resistance.

Where camera cables are replaced during servicing, the push-pull mechanism shortens maintenance time and helps prevent accidental release during examination.

This 00B connector delivery shows how Spring Technology serves compact dental imaging — from the miniature body and 4 contacts of the CBTH00BG-SMSM04-D270 to its elbow cable routing and PPS insulation, every detail was aligned with the customer’s intraoral camera requirements. Spring Technology also provides professional customization services for both push-pull connectors and cable assemblies, offering tailored solutions to meet your specific technical requirements.
