Rectangular connectors, also referred to as headers, are used in many electronic and electrical devices to transfer electrical signals or power between components. They come in a variety of shapes and sizes, and the most common type is the 2163-19-02-P2 rectangular connector. Its features, applications and working principles are explained in this article.

2163-19-02-P2 rectangular connector features a standard double rows 2.5mm pitch, gold-plated, machined contacts with a single point-to-point connection. The insulator body is made of black UL94-V0 certified thermoplastic and the ends are molded with strain relief clips to ensure reliable and secure connection. It has a maximum current rating of 2.2A, a voltage rating of 125V and an operating temperature range of -40°C to +105°C.

The 2163-19-02-P2 rectangular connector is suitable for a wide range of applications. They are commonly used in electronic devices like desktop PCs, laptops, game consoles, mobile phones, tablets, printers, routers, and modems. They are also widely used in medical devices such as infusion pumps, heart rate monitors, ventilators, and EEG machines. They are even used in industrial equipment such as robots, PLCs, and other automation systems.

The working principle of the 2163-19-02-P2 rectangular connector is quite simple. When the connector is inserted into a mating part, the contacts on the inside of the connector will make contact with the mating pins. This will create a secure electrical connection, and the signal or power can then be transferred from one component to the other. The strain relief clips will also ensure that the connection is secure and will not become loose over time.

The 2163-19-02-P2 rectangular connector is a reliable and versatile connector that can be used in various applications, from computing and consumer electronics to industrial equipment. Its features, such as double rows 2.5mm pitch, gold-plated machined contacts, robust construction, and strain relief clips, make it ideal for a wide range of applications. It is a popular choice for applications where a secure and reliable connection is required.
