42-10196

Circular Cable Assemblies are a type of electrical connector that is used to carry electrical signals between devices. The 42-10196 series of connectors is a modular cable assembly, meaning that the connectors and components are designed for a specific purpose. The 42-10196 series is specifically designed for the transmission of data signals in harsh industrial environments.

Application Field: The 42-10196 series is designed for industrial applications where exposure to extreme environmental conditions is common. This includes rough industrial conditions such as extreme temperatures, vibration, shock, impacts, moisture, dust, acidic or caustic environments, and other mechanical stresses. Additionally, the 42-10196 series is compatible with most popular types of industrial equipment. These include computer controls, motor controllers, frequency converters, industrial robots, and data acquisition systems.

Working Principle: The data signals transmitted by the 42-10196 connectors use an insulated conductor that runs between the components. This type of connection eliminates the need for a separate ground line, thereby reducing clutter and improving signal integrity. The connection is made up of an inner and an outer conductor, with each conductor wrapped in a layer of insulation. The insulation surrounding the conductor provides protection from external electromagnetic interference (EMI). To ensure a secure connection, the assembly includes a mechanical locking mechanism that locks the connectors together before the connection is made, preventing accidental disconnects. This also allows the connectors to withstand high levels of mechanical stress.

The 42-10196 series connectors provide an economical alternative to hard wiring in industrial applications. They are capable of transmitting high-performance signals while providing a compact and reliable connection. Moreover, they are extremely durable and reliable, even in harsh conditions, making them the perfect choice for many industrial applications.
