68498-411HLF

Rectangular Connectors — Headers, Male Pins

The 68498-411HLF is a high-performance, high-reliability angle mating header, featuring a secure, durable latch lock for enhanced mating and retention. It is available with single and dual double-row contacts to support board stacking and side-by-side applications. Operating temperature range is -55°C to +125°C, peak temperature +150°C.

Applications

The 68498-411HLF is designed for use in low-voltage applications, such as medical, machine vision, health/fitness, IoT, telecom, automotive, robotics, and factory automation.

Typically used in end applications requiring circuit interconnect, such as PC boards, backplanes, and cables, and in inter-device connector systems, the 68498-411HLF header can be used as a general purpose, right-angle interconnect solution for board-to-board, backplane-to-PC board, and board-to-cable interconnect configurations.

Working Principle

The connector has two sets of mating pairs for secure latching when two connectors are mated. The first set includes an angular latching profile and a rear side offset latching profile. This combination of latching profiles securely and reliably locks the PCB and FFC/FPC ribbon cable together after mating.

The latching design also allows for a much greater mating force than a traditional board-to-board connector. This extra force helps prevent the connector from becoming detached when exposed to shock and vibration.

The 68498-411HLF is designed with high performance, low insertion force, and robustness in mind. It is rated for 1A continuous current, and is rated up to 5A per row. This ensures low power loss and stable power delivery.

Conclusion

The 68498-411HLF connector is a high-performance, high-reliability, right-angle interconnect solution with enhanced mating and retention capabilities. Its secure, durable latch lock ensures stable power delivery, and its robust design ensures an enhanced level of reliability in extreme conditions. It is suitable for a wide range of low-voltage applications, including medical, machine vision, health/fitness, IoT, telecom, automotive, robotics, and factory automation.
