0901471322

Rectangular Connectors - Headers, Receptacles, Female Sockets specifically include the 0901471322 adapter. It is a two-piece adapter which has a receptacle and a header. The receptacle half of the adapter is typically mounted on a circuit board or other piece of equipment to provide an electrical connection point, and the header plugs into this receptacle from the cable side. The receptacle is what makes the electrical connection between the two pieces of the adapter, while the header is how the adapter and the cable are mechanically connected.

Applications

The 0901471322 adapter is used primarily in telecom and datacom applications. It is used to change a system design quickly and easily without having to re-wire anything but the adapter itself. It can also be used in place of more expensive soldering or press-fit electrical connections. Because the adapter is a two piece device, it can easily be removed or replaced without damaging the underlying wiring.

The adapter is also used in some medical applications. It can be used to quickly connect medical instruments and devices to monitors, computers, and other medical equipment. The adapter is small and lightweight, making it easy to handle and manipulate in tight areas. Additionally, it can be quickly and easily removed for cleaning or sterilizing without compromising the integrity of the underlying wiring.

Working principles

The 0901471322 adapter consists of two halves: a receptacle and a header. The receptacle induces electrical contact via a series of spring-loaded contacts. These contacts are held in place by a rigid insulation frame. When the header is plugged into the receptacle, it forces the contacts into a closed position, where they make electrical contact. The contact force and travel provided by the contacts ensure a good mechanical and electrical connection between the two pieces.

The material used for the contact components is normally a conductive metal such as beryllium copper alloy. The contacts are plated with a thin layer of gold to reduce contact electrical resistance and also improve life expectancy. The insulation of the adapter is usually made from a thermoplastic material such as polyimide or polycarbonate.

The 0901471322 adapter is extremely reliable and robust. It is designed to withstand various environmental conditions such as temperature and humidity as well as shock and vibration. The contact force is maintained for the life of the adapter and this ensures reliable data transmission even after extended use.
