Modular connectors have been widely used in a variety of electronic applications, ranging from communications and computing to automation and control. One such connector, the 5-555177-3, is widely used for both industrial and consumer applications. In this article, we will discuss the 5-555177-3 connector’s application field and working principle.

The 5-555177-3 modular connector is a 6-pin connector that is widely used in industrial modem/console type applications. It is compatible with both 3-pin and 6-pin modular plugs, allowing for easy expandability. The 5-555177-3 connector is very commonly found in industrial equipment, including factory automation equipment, storage systems, and industrial gateways.

The 5-555177-3 connector is designed to snap into a standard 19-pin D-subminiature female socket, with the top four pins of the terminal being the pins intended to be used. While the 5-555177-3 connector is not typically designed to be plugged and unplugged, it can handle up to 10,000 cycles of insertion and removal. The connector also has a pinch lock design, which prevents the connector from coming out if the user pulls on it.

The 5-555177-3 connector works on the principle of a round disc that pivots within the connector housing. This feature allows the pin shown in the picture to make contact with the female socket as the disc is pushed in, creating a physical connection between the two. This connection is secured by a spring-loaded locking mechanism when the disc is released. The 5-555177-3 connector also features an internal strain relief system, which helps to ensure that the signal pins stay in contact with the socket for a secure connection.

The 5-555177-3 connector is commonly used in applications such as RS-232/RS-485 data communications, remote PBX and control systems, computer and point-of-sale terminals, and industrial control systems. It is also popular among hobbyists and students for simple electronics projects.

In summary, the 5-555177-3 is a 6-pin modular connector that is designed to work with 3-pin and 6-pin modular plugs. It features a spring-loaded locking mechanism as well as an internal strain relief system. The connector is widely used in a variety of industrial and consumer application, making it a valuable component in many electronic designs.
