50015-5068ALF

A backplane connector, such as 50015-5068ALF, is typically used for connecting different cards in a system architecture. It is used to connect two or more cards with one another while simultaneously providing power. While they mainly provide the electrical connection they also provide functionality such as shielding, pin assignability, and vibration resistance. 50015-5068ALF backplane connectors are specialized connectors used to solve complicated problems in backplane applications.

The 50015-5068ALF connector is most commonly used in mid-range to high-end computing applications where the system depends on high-speed, high-density, and multiple signal pathways. It provides this while still ensuring maximum reliability and durability in constrained environments. The 50015-5068ALF allows for up to 48 pair of differential pair signals, making it a great choice for highly dense backplane architectures. In addition to this, the connectors offer precision backplane engagement and retention with a robust locking system. They also provide cable retention features with an added benefit of high contact reliability.

The 50015-5068ALF also offers features such as the ability to stack vertically. This is beneficial in applications where the backplane must be efficiently mounted or tucked away in a confined space. These specialized connectors are also designed to accommodate a wide variety of uses. They provide flexible C-grid III pin orders for easy outlet system design, allowing users to vary the order of the pins to fit the specific application.

The working principle of the 50015-5068ALF backplane connector is simple yet effective. It consists of two sides; the backplane and the connector itself. On the backplane, there are a series of slots, pins, and contacts which the connector will fit into. On the connector, there are tabs which fit into the slots in the backplane and contacts which fit into the pins. The pins along the backplane act as the electrical contact point and the tabs on the connector serve to mechanically secure the connector to the backplane.

The 50015-5068ALF connector is designed specifically for backplane applications that require density, performance, and reliability. It is robust, has a wide range of applications, and can accommodate a variety of pin orders. This makes it a great choice for connecting multiple cards in the most reliable and durable way possible.
