646486-1

646486-1, Hard Metric, Standard, is a type of backplane connectors, which combines the sensing and communication functions for connecting from the backplane. It is designed for high-speed data communication and offers superior signal integrity and robustness for mission-critical applications.

In the application field, 646486-1 standard backplane connectors can used in different applications such as network switches and routers, storage systems, industrial control systems, mission-critical applications, medical equipment, and aerospace and defense. It has advantages of robust connectors enabling reliable communication over high speeds, and provides superior signal integrity and a long life.

The working principle of 646486-1 backplane connectors mainly consists of three components, which are the insert, the contact, and the backshell. The insert includes the receptacle and the plug that work together to connect the two parts, while the contact is responsible for making and breaking electrical connections. The backshell protects the insert from environmental elements, such as dust, water, and vibration.

The insert consists of two parts – the plug and the receptacle. The plug is a male connector that inserts into the receptacle, which is the female side of the connection. Both the plug and receptacle contain various gold-plated contacts that are arranged in a specific pattern, which helps in the transmission of data.

The contact is an important part of backplane connectors and it is responsible for making and breaking electrical connections. It is comprised of two parts – a soldering pin and a contact spring – which work together to create the connection between the two components. As the connector is inserted into the receptacle, the contact spring pushes the soldering pin against the plug and makes an electrical connection.

The backshell is responsible for protecting the insert from environmental elements. It is typically made of plastic or metal, and helps to provide a secure seal around the insert to keep out dust, water, and vibration. The backshell also provides strain relief to keep the contacts from coming loose when the device is moved or subjected to heavy loads.

Overall, 646486-1 backplane connectors are a reliable and robust solution for high-bandwidth applications that require superior signal integrity and robustness. Its combination of the insert, contact, and backshell ensures the highest level of performance in a wide variety of applications.
