51915-199LF

51915-199LF Backplane Connectors are specialized connectors used in electronic backplane applications. They feature a tin-plated steel shell with gold plated contacts and a thermoplastic insulator. The design of these connectors facilitates hot plugging and unplugging and allows for high-speed signal transmission.

The basic components of these specialized connectors include two mating parts, a terminal, and a housing. The terminal is the part of the connector that electrically connects two circuits. It is typically made of either brass or copper. The housing is the part of the connector that holds the contacts in place and prevents dirt and other materials from entering the electrical connection.

The 19115-199LF connectors feature two different types of terminations: a wire leads termination and a flat ribbon cable termination. The wire lead termination features pins or sockets that connect to wires within a harness. The flat ribbon cable termination consists of contact points along a flat ribbon cable. The wire leads termination is typically the preferred method for high-speed connections, as it reduces transmission losses.

This type of connector features a floating type contact retention system. During the mating process, the contact is allowed to float within the contact cavity. This ensures a consistent mating and offers high durability. Additionally, this type of connector is designed with excellent contact retention for quick and easy connection.

For signal applications, the 19115-199LF connector has a frequency range of up to 250 MHz. This makes it ideal for high-speed data communication applications. Additionally, these connectors are UL listed and meet the requirements of IEEE 802.3 Ethernet and HiperLAN standards.

The 19115-199LF backplane connectors provide reliable and robust connections for electronic backplane applications. The contact retention system ensures secure mating and retention, while the transmission loss is minimized with the wire leads termination. These connectors are also compatible with various signal applications, with a frequency range of up to 250 MHz.

To optimize performance and longevity, manufacturers recommend using these specialized backplane connectors in combination with high-quality wire harnesses, as well as special installation techniques. In addition, they should be inspected periodically for any signs of wear and damage and replaced if necessary.
