D-shaped connectors, commonly known as Centronics connectors, are used widely in computer-based equipment for their quick connection, as well as their protection against impact and most dust and dirt. The main part usually comprises of the D-formed connector and the mating socket. The connectors use standard cable and are available in different sizes, depending on the application.

The 101A0-900APC type connector is a type of Centronics connector, commonly used in high voltage applications such as audio and video equipment. The series of connectors has a rated current of up to 2 A and a rated voltage of up to 200 V AC. The connectors have a plastic housing, with an insulating sleeve at the connection point. This insulation sleeve helps to prevent electric current flow in case of an electric arcing fault. The connectors also include a shield clip, which provides additional protection against potential electric hazards. The plastic material used for the D-shaped connector is typically nylon or polycarbonate.

The connectors also feature a variety of contact configurations, such as 9-way,15-way and 25-way. They usually have a low profile design, with a high degree of ruggedness and high reliability when used in applications where large amounts of force or motion are involved. This makes them suitable for use in very demanding environments. The connectors are also very cost-effective, when compared to other types of connectors.

The working principle of the 101A0-900APC relies on the electrical connection being made via the contact interface between the plug and the socket. When the two parts are connected, the electrical connection is enabled by the contact interface and the electrical signal is able to flow. The contact interface prevents physical contact between the contact surfaces, which ensures a secure seal for the connection.

When the plug and socket are disconnected, the contact interface disconnects and the electrical connection is broken. This helps to protect the system by preventing potential electric risks. The connectors are designed with an insert design, which ensures secure connection between the two connector parts and helps to prevent accidental disconnections.

In conclusion, the 101A0-900APC connectors are widely used in applications that require robust electrical connections. They are also cost-effective, versatile and offer superior reliability and protection against impact and dust and dirt. Furthermore, with their low profile design, the connectors are suitable for use in very demanding environments.
