Backplane Connectors - DIN 41612

The DIN 41612 connector family is one of the most commonly used connectors in backplane applications. They are named after the German DIN standard that defines their basic mechanical specifications. This family of connectors can be found in many high performance applications from enterprise storage to telecommunications. DIN 41612 connectors are used to interconnect PCBs in backplane systems and subsystems.

The DIN 41612 backplane connector family offers several features. It is highly reliable, offering maximum flexibility and a wide range of electrical contact configurations. The high contact density makes it possible to make connections between many PCBs using a single connector. The backplane can be configured to support a wide variety of data formats, including LVDS, multiple Gigabit Ethernet links, and high-rate serial buses. The DIN 41612 connector family is available in several configurations, with the most popular being the 4-row 34-pole configuration. The DIN 41612 connectors are also available with optional metal or plastic shielding and are designed to provide superior EMI shielding when used with the plastic version.

The working principle of DIN 41612 backplane connectors is based on the contact pressure between the interface and the mating body. It entails the application of pressure to the mating body to ensure a good contact between the two. The contact pressure is important to ensure a reliable connection between the two and a secure communication of data. The contact pressure is applied through the use of a spring at the end of the connector body. The spring is compressed when the interface mating body is pushed into the DIN 41612 connector and the contact pressure is increased. This contact pressure maintains the connection between the interface and the mating body and prevents the loss of signal integrity.

The DIN 41612 backplane connectors can be used in a variety of different applications. They are commonly used in applications such as high performance server systems, storage systems, network switches, and routers. They are also used in industrial automation systems, communication systems, aerospace, defense, and medical equipment. In addition, these connectors are also used in consumer electronics such as gaming consoles, LCD displays, and media players. The DIN 41612 connector family is also extremely versatile and can be used in high-density configurations, allowing for the transfer of high-speed data between multiple PCBs and systems.

The DIN 41612 connectors provide reliable and high-performance connections, making them the ideal choice for many different applications. Their high-density configuration also makes them the ideal choice for high-speed data transmission. They are also highly reliable and durability makes them perfect for long-term applications. The excellent EMI shielding capabilities provided by the plastic shielding option also make them a great choice for applications that require reliable data transmission in hostile environments.
