Rectangular Connectors - Arrays, Edge Type, Mezzanine (Board to Board) A connector is a device or an apparatus used to join electrical and/or electronic components to provide power and/or signals between them. Connectors come in various forms and can range in size from a few millimeters in width to meter-long rectangles. One of the most popular types of connectors is the rectangular connector which is used in many different applications.5024306030 is one such type of rectangular connector used in applications such as computers, video cards, amplifiers, communications systems, and many more. It belongs to the class of Arrays, Edge Type, Mezzanine (Board to Board) connectors. This particular type of connector supports both signal and power applications. It has a current rating of 10A (Ambient) and an insulation voltage of 500VAC(rms).The 5024306030 connector is a four-pin, edge-type device consisting of two receptacle and two plug connectors. All four are arranged in a planar linear array, and they have an edge-type configuration. The contact configuration for each connector is four positions, alternating between male and female contacts. The plug connectors are copper alloy contacts plated with flash gold over nickel, while the receptacle connectors have brass contacts with nickel plating over a copper alloy base.The working principle behind the 5024306030 connector is fairly simple. When the connector is mated, the plug contacts make direct physical contact with the receptacle contacts. This process ensures that the signal and power connections are electrically completed. As the mated connector is subjected to various environmental conditions, the plug and receptacle contacts are able to resist any corrosion and heat. This makes them ideal for applications that require high reliability and durability.The 5024306030 connector’s versatility and reliability make it an ideal choice for many applications. Its small size allows the user to save space while creating a secure connection. The connector also has a low insertion force which makes it very easy to use and handle. Additionally, the connector is RoHS compliant, which means that it contains no harmful substances that could be hazardous to either the environment or the user.In conclusion, the 5024306030 connector is a highly reliable device that provides a secure connection in order to facilitate power and signal transmission. The connector’s edge-type configuration, four-pin contact configuration, and small size all make it an ideal choice for various applications. Its flash gold-plated contacts and superior heat and corrosion resistance ensure its long-term reliable performance.
