Does it need to mate with something special, or are you looking for a
generalized solution?
PowerPole connectors are fairly rugged and can be ganged up in two
dimensions to make a fairly good sized connector. If you've already got
a box of them to do 12V wiring, then you're all set.
Circular Plastic Connectors (CPC) are inexpensive, rugged, and work
well. They're the plastic equivalent of the round MIL connectors.
Available in countless pin/contact configurations. Pins/Contacts run
about 0.50 each, the shells are about $3-5.
Get the little tool to allow removing contacts (It's a just the right
sized tube of metal to push the locking tabs back in)
