51701-10012002CALF

Backplane connectors are specialized connectors specifically designed to be used for high-speed data communication and signaling on backplane infrastructure in electronics applications, including computers. The 51701-10012002CALF backplane connector is an example of a specialized backplane connector.

The 51701-10012002CALF backplane connector is an all-polymer connector with a maximum rated voltage of 150V. It is designed to be used in a variety of computer systems, and its blade-style design enables quick engagement and disengagement between the connector and a host computer system. The contact pins on the connector are plated with a gold-nickel alloy for maximum corrosion resistance, and the connector housing is constructed of reinforced fire retardant polymers for superior durability.

In order to understand the application field and working principle of the 51701-10012002CALF backplane connector, it is important to consider the key attributes of the connector. The connector consists of two parallel contact pin groups and two asymmetric contact pin groups. Each contact pin group consists of nine contact pins that are arranged in a 3x3 grid pattern. The two parallel contact pin groups are primarily used for data transmission, while the two asymmetric contact pin groups are used for signal communications. The contact pins in the parallel groups are plated with gold-nickel, while the contact pins in the asymmetric groups are plated with gold. The combination of gold and gold-nickel plating ensures that the contact pins in the connector can resist oxidation and corrosion.

When the 51701-10012002CALF backplane connector is engaged with a host computer, the contact pins in the two parallel contact pin groups are responsible for data transmission. Data signals are transmitted through the contact pins and then routed to the appropriate pins on the host computer. The gold plating on the contact pins helps to ensure a reliable and lossless connection between the data source and the host computer. The contact pins in the two asymmetric contact pin groups are responsible for signaling communication. Signaling signals are routed from the host computer to the contact pins on the connector, where they are then routed to components in other parts of the computer system.

The 51701-10012002CALF backplane connector is designed to be used in computers that require reliable and high-speed data and signaling communication over a backplane. The dual plating on the contact pins ensures that the connector will resist oxidation and corrosion during extended periods of time, and the reinforced fire retardant polymer construction of the connector housing ensures that the connector will remain durable throughout its life. Additionally, the blade-style design of the connector enables quick disengagement and engagement between the connector and the host computer system, which allows for rapid connection and disconnection processes.
