1717675-2

Rectangular connectors housings are essential components in a variety of electrical circuits. The 1717675-2 is considered an industry-standard component that is used as either an insulation housing or to secure signals and power connections. These connectors can consist of various levels of insulation, strain relief and conducted EMI and RFI protection levels.

Application field

The 1717675-2 connector housing system is commonly used in applications such as wire harnesses, OEM products, electrical distribution, automation, and instrumentation. As it contains EMI and RFI shielding, it is suitable for applications that pass sensitive electronic signals and require a certain level of sound reduction.

The seventeen thousand series further offers versatility as it fits two to eighty-eight individual pins that are used for up to fifty-nine signal contacts, two to four power contacts, and two to four grounding pins. This allows the connectors to be used in a variety of industrial applications that require modest to high-level pin density.

Working principle

The 1717675-2 connector housing consists of a series of contacts that is housed in a plastic shell. The contacts contain pins that allow the signal to flow through the connector from one electronic device to another. The metal strain relief or shield contained in the housing provides help to counterbalance radial and axial force on the pins. This adds a level of protection to the pins and prevents them from fracturing or breaking.

The use of EMI and RFI shielding helps reduce the transmission of electromagnetic interference that may cause interference in the signals. The plastic base or housing of the connector provides insulation for the contacts and prevents them from shorting. This ensures that power and signal are not affected by outside influences.

Conclusion

The 1717675-2 connector system offers versatility and robust construction. With its wide range of pin configuration, expansive shielding capabilities, and reliable insulation, the seventeen series is an industry-standard solution. The 1717675-2 is designed to fit highly demanding applications where pin density and reliability is essential.
