5749246-1

D-sub, D-shape connector housings are commonly used in industrial and mechanical applications and can be found in a variety of sizes and configurations. These connectors are typically made of a sturdy die-cast or injection-molded metal and come in both male and female styles. D-shape connectors are used to join two cables with an individual pin or socket connection in a secure, economical, and easily reversible manner. The style of the connectors is determined by its size and design of the pins.

The 5749246-1 is an example of a D-Sub, D-Shaped Connector Housing. The 5749246-1 is a typically straight-constructed connector, designed to accept male or female pins or sockets. It is available in 5 different sizes and are easily identified by the number of contacts used in the housing. The contacts of the 5749246-1 come in 8,14,20,26, or 32 pins or sockets. The 5749246-1 provides a variety of environment protections, including a temperature range of -20°C to +105°C, and meets UL 94 V-0 standards for flammability and UL 1569 standards for surface contact. The contact pitch ranges from 0.250 to 0.156 mm with standard and extended pin lengths.

The housing is also designed with an open-ended pocket in the rear to accommodate larger terminals, which will allow for greater flexibility when connecting cables. This is referred to as the rear cable entrance assembly method. It allows for a greater electrical current rating than traditional soldered connections. The housing also features a ‘catch-screw’ mechanism to provide superior strength and durability.

The working principle of the 5749246-1 is the same as any other D-Shaped Connector Housing. A male pin or socket is inserted into the female connector housing, which is then secured with a screw or other locking mechanism. The contact points securely connect the cables and the housing protects the connection from dust, dirt, and damage. This connection is also easily reversible, allowing for fast and easy connections and disconnections.

The 5749246-1 connector is widely used in industrial and mechanical applications, thanks to its durability and secure connection. Typical applications include consumer electronics, automotive, communication systems, power distribution systems, and many other applications. This connector is an excellent choice for applications and projects that require a reliable and strong connection.

In summary, the 5749246-1 is a robust D-Sub, D-Shaped Connector Housing that is designed to accept male or female pins or sockets. It is available in five various sizes and features a catch-screw mechanism to provide superior strength and durability. It also offers a variety of environment protections and meets UL 94 V-0 standards for flammability and UL 1569 for surface contact. Its open-ended pocket in the rear and larger terminals allow for higher electrical current rate when connecting cables. It is widely used in industrial and mechanical applications and provides a secure and reliable connection.
