Applications

316-43-160-41-007000 rectangular connectors are found in a wide range of applications. These include using them as part of a connector system for a circuit board, making them the perfect choice for low and medium current applications. They are also used for radio frequency (RF) and coaxial related applications in which the components are not affected by the surrounding environment.

These connectors are widely used in automotive, medical, communications, and audio-visual industries. For example, in the automotive industry, they are used to build systems such as in-vehicle entertainment systems and antenna systems. In the audio-visual field, they are ideal for connecting digital cameras and video equipment. And in the medical field, they are used to connect monitors and other medical equipment.

Working Principle

The 316-43-160-41-007000 rectangular connectors consist of two components, the receptacle, and the plug. The plug is inserted into the receptacle, with either a snap-in or push-in mechanism to secure the connection. The connector has two contact points, positive and negative. When two connectors are connected, a small electric current passes between the two contact points to create a connection.

The contact points are made of an alloy such as copper or nickel, which is able to conduct electricity without deteriorating over time. Furthermore, the surface of the connectors is engineered with a coating of silver or gold, which helps create a smoother connection and prevents corrosion. The connectors are also designed with a small, thin “finger” to create a gap between the two contacts, protecting them against short circuits.

Conclusion

The 316-43-160-41-007000 rectangular connectors are a versatile type of connector used in a variety of applications. They are engineered with the reliable RoHS compliant construction and UL, CSA, and VDE approvals. Furthermore, they are available in a variety of widths and sizes, and are compatible with various types of mounting configurations. With its flexibility and reliability, the 316-43-160-41-007000 is the perfect choice for any application.
