1-163680-4

Rectangular Connectors - Headers, Receptacles, Female Sockets refer to a type of component used to transfer power, data, or signal along a given segment of wiring. The component contains a number of small square or rectangular contacts, or male pins that mate into a number of correspondingly positioned sockets or female connectors. Each of the connectors has a unique code that consists of several numbers and/or letters, and for the 1-163680-4 this consists of 1-163680-4.

The 1-163680-4 Rectangular Connector is a member of the MIL-DTL-38999 Series 1 connector family and is designed and manufactured by ITT Cannon. Designed for harsh environments this connector is resistant to shock, vibration and temperature extremes. It is commonly used in military applications including ground vehicles, avionics, and weapons systems.

Applications and Uses

While the 1-163680-4 Rectangular Connector is ideal for extreme environments such as those found in military applications it has a wide range of other uses including:

• Industrial equipment
• Medical microscopy systems
• Robotics
• Computer systems
• Audio / visual systems
• Telecommunications systems

The 1-163680-4 Rectangular Connector is also suitable for use in high-reliability applications such as aerospace and defense, as well as medical and automotive applications.

Working Principles

The 1-163680-4 Rectangular Connector consists of a male pin contact and a socket or female contact. When power, data, or signal needs to be transferred from one end of the wiring to the other, the male pin contact is inserted into the female contact. This creates an electrical connection between the two points and allows the data to be transferred.

The connection is designed to be secure, with the two contacts engaging in a manner designed to ensure a reliable and secure connection. The contacts are designed to be corrosion resistant, durable, and highly resistant to shock and harsh environments.

In some cases, the contacts may also be gold-plated to allow for higher quality signal transmission. The contacts are typically made from a durable material such as stainless steel.

Conclusion

The 1-163680-4 Rectangular Connector is an excellent choice for transferring power, data, or signal in harsh environments as well as in a variety of other applications. The contacts are designed to be corrosion resistant and highly reliable when engaging to create an electrical connection. With its durable construction, the 1-163680-4 Rectangular Connector is an ideal choice for reliable data transmission.
