Deutsch DTM Series — Specs and Wiring Guide

The Deutsch DTM series is the compact, signal-grade member of the Deutsch connector family. Designed for thinner 24–20 AWG wire, DTM connectors use size 20 contacts rated at 7.5 amps continuous, making them ideal for CAN bus wiring, sensor circuits, and low-current signal distribution. Like the DT series, DTM connectors are sealed to IP68 and use the same wedgelock retention system for vibration-proof performance. Available in 2, 3, 4, and 6-pin configurations, the DTM series is the go-to choice when harness designers need sealed connections for signal-level circuits without the bulk of a full-size DT connector. They are widely used in motorsport, aftermarket ECU installations, and instrumentation harnesses.
