5-5179010-2

Rectangular Connectors - Arrays, Edge Type, Mezzanine (Board to Board) technology encompasses a wide variety of products for the board and electronic components connection. Its increasing popularity has driven the need for more efficient models of existing connector types, and new, innovative solutions in order to meet the demands of today’s processes and scaling needs. The 5-5179010-2 is an extremely reliable and compact design incorporating two parallel rows of finger-like prongs.

Interconnection of both boards and chips can take place successfully using the 5-5179010-2 through a process of solderless connection. This process requires components to be placed on one side of the substrate and then the board is simply pushed down onto the components on the other side. This makes solderless connection an incredibly efficient way to manually install electrical interconnections and to reliably protect them from harsh environments.

The 5-5179010-2 employs the two parallel rows of prongs to create two mating planes so that power and signal lines can be multiplexed while providing superior ground reference to ensure reliable data transmission. This design also helps minimize cross-talk for improved signal integrity, meaning improved signal to noise ratio, which makes this particularly suitable for high speed transmission lines.

The 5-5179010-2 is designed with simpler finger contact-style contacts instead of traditional pins. These types of connections don’t require complex processing and can be quickly installed and removed either manually or with automated machines. The Finger contacts also provide more reliable contact as they are capable of self-aligning which provides better part-to-part contact alignment. This makes the 5-5179010-2 particularly suitable for applications that require higher density.

The most notable feature of the 5-5179010-2 is its extreme reliability and adaptability to extreme conditions. It has been stress tested for shock and vibration conditions and its IP67 rating makes it securely protected against rain, dust and even extreme temperatures.

Ideal applications for the 5-5179010-2 include servers, industrial automation and control, networking and telecom, and medical. It can be used for a wide range of components such as Edge connectors, FPC/FFC connectors, and board-to-board connectors, as well as a wide range of standard and custom sizes.

5-5179010-2 is designed with reliability and high speed performance in mind and provides a perfect solution for board-level components connections. As the demand for higher board-level performance grows, the need for efficient and reliable solutions like the 5-5179010-2 will only increase. It is an ideal solution for providing remote and distributed systems with quick, reliable and safe connections.
