6646597-1

Backplane connectors are essential components in the majority of electronic device designs, from the lowest density power supply systems to high density, high speed boards. Such connectors provide reliable, robust connections between printed circuit boards and enable the flow of signals throughout a system. The 6646597-1 backplane connector is especially suitable for applications requiring high speed multi-bit data transfer.

The 6646597-1 is constructed with an array of shielded contact tubes extending from a housing. Each pair of contact tubes contains one signal contact and one ground contact; these pairs are usually arranged in vertical columns and staggered rows. The contacts are designed to interface with standard printed circuit board (PCB) design including plated through-holes, allowing them to be soldered to the board. This popular design consists of two rows and three columns, with nine positions in each row.

The 6646597-1 also has several features to help prevent EMI (electromagnetic interference). The included shielding and shielding plates emphasize the importance of safe EMI containment, helping to resist exposure to EMI sources outside the system. The contacts are also constructed with a spring-loaded mechanism that ensures a full insertion and proper contact of the contact tubes with the PCB.

The 6646597-1 can support a variety of data transfer rates and rates up to 10 Gbps. This allows for a range of different uses, as the connector can transmit multiple channels of high speed data in short distances. The 6646597-1 is also compliant with common industrial standards for interconnectivity, making it an ideal choice for various industrial applications.

The working principle of the 6646597-1 backplane connector is simple yet effective. When a signal is received, it is conducted down one of the contact tubes and then amplified to a voltage level sufficient for transmitting and processing data. At the same time, the signal is reflected back down into the second contact tube, which gives a “grounded” path for the signal. This two-current conduction approach ensures that the connection between the printed circuit board and the connector remains strong and stable, even under high data transfer speeds.

The 6646597-1 backplane connector is a specialized connector designed for applications requiring robust, high speed multi-bit data transfer. After soldering to a printed circuit board, the connector\'s shielding and electric grounding mechanisms help ensure that the signal is reliably transferred to the desired destination. As the connector is compliant with common industrial standards, it can be used in a wide variety of applications, from low- to high-density power supply systems.
