Electrical & Connectors

Each joint has four connectors on its back shell: two for the 60 A power chain (XT90, in + out) and two for CAN bus and IO (Ethernet RJ45).

Connector selection rationale

No single connector family handles both 60 A power and CAN bus simultaneously. The two-connector-per-side approach is the practical outcome:

Function	Connector	Rating
Power (50 A)	XT60	50 A continuous
CAN bus	Ethernet Splitter	Two-wire CAN + shield
