at the proximal end. The Lead is inserted and secured into the Connector on the distal end. The
Connector also contains 8 Contacts that align with the Contacts on the Lead to form electrical
connections. The proximal end of the extension is inserted into the IPG.
The 8 Contact Lead Extension may only be used with 8 Contact Leads. Each of these Lead
Extensions connects to a single Lead. This 55 cm model is intended to support IPGs implanted in
