Introduction to 68046-212LF Connectors

Rectangular Connectors (or known as “headers” or “female sockets”) are widely used in a variety of applications, and the 68046-212LF is no exception. This type of connector is a type of shielded 6-pin rectangular board mountable connector with a low profile design that is well-suited for use in telecommunications and networking applications.

Application of 68046-212LF Connectors

68046-212LF Connectors are designed for maximum reliability and performance in board to board connections, and due to their low footprint design they are suitable for applications in which space is at a premium. This type of connector’s power and high-speed transmission capabilities make it ideal for applications in which signal integrity, EMI/RFI protection and/or extreme tight connection requirements are present. Furthermore, it is also an excellent choice where low signal losses, simultaneous multiple signal paths and/or power transmission are involved.

For such reasons, 68046-212LF Connectors can be found in diverse industries and applications. These include, but are not limited to, consumer electronics, telecommunications, broadcast and video equipment, audio-video equipment, lighting and medical equipment. This type of connector also can be used in industrial control systems, factory automation equipment, smart home and home automation, and power supplies and industrial sensors.

Working Principle of 68046-212LF Connectors

The basic working principle behind these 6-pin rectangular board connectors is based on the secure connection of pin and socket, which gives the connection both a secure and reliable connection. The 6 pins of the connector are located across the top and bottom surfaces. Digi-Key breaks down the functional components of the 68046-212LF to help you make sense of its workings, from its body material to its contacts and insulation elements.

The body of the 68046-212LF connector is made up of a high-temperature UL94V-0 rated plastic material. The insulation element employed in this type of connector includes a mid-mount crimp type 21 AWG/18 AWG conductor. As for the contacts, these are tin over nickel-plated brass, with crimp interference contacts. Finally, the bushing is made up of electro-tin-plated brass.

Finally, to ensure a safe and secure connection, the 6-pin connector comes with a locking latch that engages with a lock on the mating connector. This provides excellent retention, and when the connectors are mated, it goes a long way in preventing accidental disconnection.

Conclusion

The 68046-212LF Connector is an excellent example of a board-to-board connector designed to meet both the demands of modern industry while also being extremely reliable and secure in its connection. Thanks to its low profile design and its ability to transmit power and high-speed signals, this type of connector is highly sought after for its ability to perform in challenging applications and tight connection requirements, such as consumer electronics, telecommunications and data centers. Beyond its applications, the 68046-212LF should also be praised for its simple yet reliable working principle.
