Quick Reference Guide
Gemini Series Switches
The TE Connectivity extensive Gemini A and Gemini AE Series offer one and two poles with multicircuit
configurations, including: momentary function, locking toggle to avoid unwanted switching as well as bat
and flat toggles in different lengths. The Gemini AE Series meets IP67 requirements. Terminals are epoxy
sealed to prevent the entry of flux, solvent and other contaminants. Gemini A & Gemini AE Switches are
available with solder lug, PC, wire wrap, vertical, bracketed and angle-mount PC terminal choices.
The Gemini series offers engineers many different combinations of toggle or rocker switches for their
applications.
