Backplane Connectors - Housings

Backplane connectors – housings are primarily used for connecting multiple printed circuit boards together. The most common type of backplane connector that is used is the 6648193-1, which is a two-row, multiple contact, flat plug and housed in an insulating material. In addition to the two rows the 6648193-1 also features a strain relief tab for securing the contact to a card cage or panel.

6648193-1 Application Field and Working Principle

The 6648193-1 backplane connector typically comes in various sizes and configurations. It is utilized most commonly in telecommunication infrastructure systems, such as base station subsystems (BSS) and radio network controllers (RNC). It is also commonly used in other industries where multiple printed circuit boards need to be securely connected together.

The working principle of the 6648193-1 is relatively simple. The backplane connector consists of two main components, which are the housing and contacts. On one end of the connector the contacts are either wired or soldered into place while on the other end the housing holds the contacts securely in place.

When the connector is inserted into place, the contact pins make contact with each other, creating a secure electrical connection. It is designed to be very durable and the contacts can withstand high temperatures and vibrations without any problems. The 6648193-1 also has a strain relief tab, which holds the connector securely in place, preventing any accidental disconnection.

Aside from securely connecting multiple printed circuit boards together, the 6648193-1 also offers other benefits. It is designed with a vibration-resistant feature, which prevents any vibration-induced damage to the contacts. In addition, the 6648193-1 has a tight contact retention feature, which ensures that the contacts do not move or become loose over time.

The 6648193-1 is also designed for quick and easy installation. It is compatible with most panel and card cage mounting systems, and also features a unique strain relief tab that hold the connector in place securely. This makes it easier for installers to assemble and disassemble the connector whenever needed.

Conclusion

The 6648193-1 backplane connector is a versatile and reliable solution for securely connecting multiple printed circuit boards together. It features a durable design that is vibration-resistant and has a tight contact retention feature. In addition, its quick and easy installation makes it perfect for any type of application.
