Rectangular Connectors - Headers, Male Pins

The 151260-8422-TH connectors are designed for industrial, telecommunications, networking, computer and computer-related application fields. These connectors can be used in a variety of connection methods, including straight, elbow, nozzles, and right-angle connections.

Types of Connectors

The 151260-8422-TH connectors are available in three types: Header Male Pin (HMP), Elbow Male Pin (EMP), and Right Angle Male Pin (RAMP). Each type is designed and manufactured for a specific purpose and application.

HMP Connectors

HMP connectors are typically used in a straight application. They are designed to provide a reliable connection between two components, while allowing easy access and removal. The male contacts provide an electrically conductive, one-way connection from the panel to the card. The male contacts on the HMP are usually soldered in place or installed with a special tool.

EMP Connectors

EMP connectors are designed with an elbow or “L” shape to provide an additional angle of connection, allowing for greater flexibility in applications. The male contacts provide an electrical connection from the panel to the card. As with the HMP, they are usually soldered in place or installed with a special tool.

RAMP Connectors

RAMP connectors are typically used in right-angle applications. They provide a connection from the panel to the card at an angle of 90°. The male contacts are soldered in place or installed with a special tool.

Working Principle

The 151260-8422-TH connectors are designed to provide a reliable and secure connection between two components. The male contacts on the connectors make an electrical connection when the connector is inserted into an appropriate receptacle. These connectors involve a three-step process to make a connection: insertion, locking, and electrical connection.

Step 1: Insertion

The first step of the connection process is to insert the connector into the receptacle. This is done by aligning the tabs on the connector with the corresponding slots on the receptacle and pushing the connector in until it is securely seated.

Step 2: Locking

Once the connector is correctly inserted into the receptacle, a locking mechanism is activated to secure the connection. Depending on the type of construction used for the locking mechanism, a lever or latch may be used.

Step 3: Electrical Connection

The last step of the connection process is to make an electrical connection between the male contacts on the connector and the corresponding contacts on the receptacle. This is usually accomplished by soldering the contacts or by using a special tool to press the contacts together.

The 151260-8422-TH Connectors are designed for use in a variety of industrial, telecommunications, networking, computer and computer-related applications. With their reliable and secure connection design, they provide a reliable and secure connection for a variety of applications.
