Rectangular Connectors – Housings

Rectangular connectors – housings are standard components used to interconnect two or more circuit boards, PC boards, backplanes, cable assemblies and numerous other devices. The 0347290081 is a particularly robust rectangular connector with strong shielding, better engagement force and resistance to water and dust. The rectangular connector housing consists of a plastic shell inserted into a metal shell, thus providing a second shield to protect against external interference.

Application Field

Rectangular Connectors – Housings are found in all types of electronic equipment including instrumentation, control systems, computers, consumer products, automotive and aviation systems. 0347290081 is designed with an additional shield to offer higher performance in especially demanding applications such as telecommunications, avionics and military applications. It is also suitable for a wide range of general purpose applications.

Working Principle

In its most basic form, the 0347290081 consist of two mating connectors which are typically keyed to provide a precise electrical connection. The plastic shell of the connector housing snaps around the pins on the board or cable assembly and forms the electrical contact. The metal shell snaps over the plastic shell to provide the shielding. The plastic shell is made of a plastic that is temperature and age resistant. The metal shield provides protection from dust, moisture and electromagnetic interference.

The 0347290081 is designed to be easily mounted to a board by means of a card edge attachment. This attaches the connector housing to the board, ensuring a secure connection and proper alignment. Card edge attachment is also used to ensure that the electrical connection is made properly and that no damage is caused due to improper installation.

The 0347290081 is designed to be used in a variety of environments. It is suitable for indoor and outdoor use, with protection from dust, water, and extreme temperatures. The robust construction of the connector housing ensures that it will stay securely mounted to the board, even in the toughest conditions.

Conclusion

The 0347290081 is a robust rectangular connector housing that provides strong shielding, good engagement force and resistance to water and dust. It is suitable for demanding applications such as telecommunications, avionics and military applications as well as for general purpose applications. The plastic shell and metal shell of the connector housing snap together securely to provide electrical contact and protection from environmental factors. Card edge attachment is used to ensure that the electrical connection is made properly and that no damage is caused due to improper installation. The 0347290081 is an excellent choice for applications in a variety of environments.
