3-1123723-6 Connectors, Interconnects

Rectangular connectors – headers, male pins – are ubiquitous in everyday life, playing a vital role in commercial and industrial electronic applications. They provide an efficient means of connecting two components. The 3-1123723-6 type is a small insulation displacement connector (IDC) designed to join two or more wires together in a confined space. It is a simple device that is easy to use, economical and reliable.

The 3-1123723-6 type is a single-row 11-pin IDC. It has a rectangular plastic body with a translucent cover that encloses the pins, providing insulation and protection for the contacts. The pins are made of gold-plated brass and have a low contact resistance. The cover is made of opaque plastic with an open end to allow easy access for wires to be inserted into the pins. This design makes it suitable for use with externally shielded cables that require additional insulation from the environment and for applications where the pins are prone to damage.

The 3-1123723-6 type is typically used in industrial control and instrumentation, communication systems, and other applications that require reliable connection of a large number of wires in a confined space. For example, it is often used to join multiple signal and data cables in a single unit, such as in the port of a computer. In addition, it can be used to connect multiple wires in automotive and automotive-related applications, such as in the wiring system of a car.

The working principle of the 3-1123723-6 type is fairly simple. The device consists of two rows of pins, one row at each end. A metal strip located in the middle of the unit provides a contact point between the two rows. When a wire is inserted into the pins on one side of the connector, it is simultaneously connected to the pins on the other side, creating an electrical connection. This allows multiple wires to be connected quickly and efficiently, reducing the amount of wiring needed for a given application.

The 3-1123723-6 type is a versatile and reliable connector that is used in a wide range of applications. It is simple to use, highly cost effective, and durable, making it an ideal choice for almost any application that requires a reliable connection of multiple wires in a confined space.
