50009-5160GLF

Backplane connectors are specialized electrical connectors that are used to connect different printed circuit boards (PCBs) together. The 50009-5160GLF is a specific type of backplane connector that is designed to accommodate highly-dense signals over a wide operating temperature range. Such a connector features a robust design and is specifically designed for use in industrial automation, communication devices, and medical devices.

Key Specifications

• Contact : 160-pin female
• High-signal density
• Excellent signal integrity
• Operating voltage : 4V-16V
• Size: L=45mm (1.77 in) x W=20 mm (0.78 in)
• High-speed signaling at different frequencies and data rates, with up to 10 Gbps
• Wide operating temperature range: -40 °C to +105 °C (-40 °F to +221 °F)

Application Field and Working Principle

The 50009-5160GLF is designed to provide reliable connections in a broad array of applications where high signal density is required, such as industrial automation, medical devices, and communication devices. Its pin arrangement can carry up to 10 Gbps of data at different frequencies and data rates. Additionally, the connector can be used to transfer power lo the PCBs that it is connected to, up to 16V.

As its main working principle, the 50009-5160GLF connector has a durable metal housing with a female contact area. The contact area is made up of 160 gold-plated pins which are arranged in four rows that are stacked on top of each other. Data transmission is achieved through the electrical contact between the gold-plated pins and corresponding male contacts that are connected to the PCBs. Such contact is reliable and secure, as the pins are located inside the connector housing and are constructed in such a way that they can easily withstand the vibration, shock and temperature changes.

In order to ensure the integrity of the signals, the 50009-5160GLF features a shielded housing that prevents the signals from external interference. The shielded housing also reduces EMI and crosstalk, thus enabling the connector to perform efficiently in noisy environments. Additionally, it is designed in such a way that it makes it easier to inspect the connection between the pins and the mating contacts.

Benefits

• Rugged and reliable
• High signal density and data rate
• Excellent signal integrity
• Improved EMI protection
• Easy to inspect connection

Conclusion

The 50009-5160GLF is an ideal choice for applications that require high density signals, such as industrial automation, communication devices, and medical devices. Its robust design and shielded housing provide reliable signal transmission and improved EMI protection, which allows the connector to perform efficiently in even the most demanding applications. It also provides excellent signal integrity, protection against vibration, shock, and temperature, and an improved electrical connection between pins and the corresponding mating contacts.
