1393454-2

Rectangular connectors are widely used in telecommunications, computer, automotive, industrial automation and consumer electronics applications. The 1393454-2 connector series is a good example of this type of connector. This article will discuss the applications and working principles of the 1393454-2 connector.

The 1393454-2 connector series is suited for applications involving light-duty wire harvesting and circuit assembly, as well as high speed signal transmission. It is a two piece design comprising a plug and receptacle that are held together by a single latching mechanism. The contact pin size for this connector is 0.64mm with a current rating of 0.4A @ 1.7V. It is also suitable for use in environments with temperatures between -25°C to 85°C and up to 12.5 mm in cable thickness.

The working principle of the 1393454-2 connector is quite simple. The two pieces of the connector, the plug and the receptacle, are both designed to have gender-specific grooves and notches that fit together when the connector is mated. When the connector is mated, the latching mechanism clips the plug and receptacle together, creating an electrical connection and ensuring a secure fitment.The contacts inside the plug and receptacle are also designed to mate together when the two pieces are combined. The contacts are made of a copper alloy and have a gold plating which contributes to the 1393454-2 connector’s high electrical performance by reducing the contact resistance. The female contacts also feature a crimped section which provides extra strain relief in applications with larger cables.

Overall, the 1393454-2 connector series is a reliable, high performance rectangular connector that is suitable for a variety of applications. Its two-piece design and latching mechanism provide a secure fitment and ensures a robust connection. The contacts are also designed to provide excellent electrical characteristics, making this connector suitable for use in high speed applications.
