446709-1

Backplane connectors have been widely used in the telecom, computing and industrial markets as a compact and efficient way to reduce size and cost, while improving performance. The 446709-1 contact is a custom-made contact designed for high-voltage applications, providing up to 25 A current capacity due to its unique technology and robust construction.

At the heart of the 446709-1 contact is a two-leaf, copper beryllium alloy contact blade, which provides superior performance over conventional steel contact designs. The contact blade is carefully shaped and sized to provide maximum electrical performance and power transfer. The contact also features a unique gold plating for superior reliability and corrosion protection.

446709-1 contacts are primarily used in high-voltage applications where high current capacity and reliable connections are critical. Examples include power backplanes such as switchboards, server racks and even aerospace applications. This contact type is also used in systems where size is a major factor, such as data centers and telecom switching systems.

446709-1 contacts are used to securely link two pieces of equipment together in a backplane, without needing additional cabling. This greatly reduces material cost and installation time. The contacts are designed to ensure a reliable physical and electrical connection over the life of the product, without suffering from signal integrity and EMI issues.

The contact is designed to ensure that male and female contacts are securely mated with low levels of electrical resistance and little or no vibration. This prevents spurious signals, EMI and corrosion from impacting the performance of the system. In addition, the contact is designed for easy installation and maintenance.

The 446709-1 contact is designed to fit into several backplane connector systems, including Murphy, Great Plains, and Hanshin. The contact is also designed to meet the strict requirements of many telecom and computer applications, including MIL-STD-1553, IEEE-541, and SAE-J-1113. These standards are important for ensuring the connection is made correctly, with minimal latency and no signal loss.

In summary, the 446709-1 contact is an ideal solution for high-voltage applications, and provides superior performance, reliability, and ease of installation. It is designed to meet the highest standards of safety and performance and is used extensively in industrial, aerospace, and telecom applications.
