70228-102LF

The 70228-102LF is a specialized type of backplane connector with a variety of uses in different applications. In general, backplane connectors are used to connect two or more printed circuit boards together in a system, allowing data and power to pass between them. In more complex applications, the connector is required to support additional functionality such as communication, timing, and control.

The 70228-102LF is designed for applications that use high speed differential signal transmission, such as telecommunications, storage systems, industrial electronics, and medical imaging. It has low crosstalk levels and a low signal insertion loss, allowing it to support data rates of up to 10 Gb per second. Additionally, it has a wide operating temperature range, making it suitable for use in extreme environments.

The connector is made up of two pieces. The first is the receptacle, which is attached to the motherboard. This houses the electrical contacts, which are connected to the printed circuit board’s trace patterns. The second is the plug, which carries the signals from the transceivers or other components to the receptacle. The plug is attached to a cable or cable assembly and the contacts on the plug are also connected to the signal traces of the assembled board.

The contacts on the 70228-102LF are arranged in a “low-force” design, meaning they have a relatively low contact force compared to other connectors. This ensures a reliable connection and reduces wire damage. The contact pins are also gold plated for greater durability and corrosion resistance. The connector features a latching system, which locks the connector in place when it is mated with the receptacle.

The 70228-102LF is also highly reliable, with a typical life span of up to 500 mating cycles. This ensures the system’s performance remains consistent and stable over time. Additionally, the connector is compliant with RoHS and REACH regulations, making it an environmentally friendly choice for applications where environmental regulations are a concern.

The 70228-102LF is a versatile and reliable option for connecting two or more printed circuit boards together. It allows for the transmission of high-speed differential signals, its contact force is low, and it is compliant with environmental regulations. Additionally, its latching and gold-plated contacts ensure a reliable connection, while its high life time ensures that it will remain usable for a long time.
