1318989-1

Rectangular Connectors are instrumentation and wiring components used to link transmission between components in a device or system. Housings are components of a connector system that secure contacts and act as interface barriers between them. An example of a rectangular connector housing is the 1318989-1, which is a 4 to 8 position board-to-board connector system. This article will discuss the application field and working principle of the 1318989-1.

The 1318989-1 connector housing is designed to be used in commercial, industrial, and aerospace/defense applications. It is used to connect circuit boards with backplanes, motherboards, and other PCB’s. It is a cost-effective solution for applications that require secure, reliable, and high-quality connections.

The 1318989-1 connector housing features a vertical and a horizontal board mount configuration, allowing for a range of mounting solutions. It also has an integral latching system which provides secure connections. The housing accommodates 8 mm to 10 mm board-to-board spacing for a space-saving footprint on the board. The housing has an integrated dust proof shield to protect against the ingress of dust and moisture.

The 1318989-1 is designed with a high-speed signal path. It is constructed with a small form-factor pluggable (SFP) module and has a maximum mating height of 4.8 mm. The connector has high-frequency shielding allowing for a higher signal-to-noise ratio. The housing has a temperature range of -55°C to +125°C, making it suitable for extreme operating conditions.

The 1318989-1 connector is designed to provide a rapid and secure mating of board-to-board connections. It features a floating mounting structure which ensures proper mating of high-speed signals. The integrated latching system ensures that the connection is secure to prevent accidental disconnection. The housing also features a positive contact retainer which ensures a reliable, continuous connection to both boards.

The1318989-1 connector is designed to be compatible with a variety of other connector systems, allowing for a variety of configurations. The pin-to-socket (PTS) contacts are polarized and the wires are color-coded for easy identification. The wires are also constructed with nickel-plated brass and are UL 94V-1 approved.

In summary, the 1318989-1 rectangular connector housing is a robust and reliable solution for board-to-board connection. It has a high-speed signal path, a floating mounting structure, an integrated dust proof shield, and an integrated latching system. The housing is suitable for a range of applications, including commercial, industrial, and aerospace/defense. It is also compatible with a variety of other connector systems for custom configurations.
