Rectangular Connectors - Housings
The 8-1971773-2 connector is a rectangular housing that is becoming increasingly popular in the consumer electronics industry due to its low cost and wide application field. It consists of a pair of male and female connectors, each of which are composed of two halves, one for carrying contact pins, and the other for connecting to the wire. It is also known as a "multi purpose" connector due to its ability to be used for various types of applications.
The purpose of the 8-1971773-2 connectors is to ensure reliable electrical connection and signal transmission. In order to achieve this goal, the male and female connectors are supplied as is or with an extra wire harness for power transmission. The connectors are designed to provide a smooth and tight connection between the two connected components. Furthermore, the connectors make it possible to reduce contact forces and also reduce abrasion, ensuring a secure, long-lasting connection.
The 8-1971773-2 connectors can be used in a wide range of applications. It is often used in consumer electronics such as computers, speakers, and headphones, as well as in medical devices. The connectors are also frequently used in car audio, home theater, and satellite TV system connections. Additionally, these connectors are used in the telecommunications industry, as well as in industrial and scientific applications.
The 8-1971773-2 connectors are generally made of high-grade materials, such as brass or stainless steel, for increased durability and performance. The contact pins are usually plated with gold to ensure electrical continuity. The connector housings feature various insulation materials, including thermoplastic, thermosetting plastic, and thermoplastic rubbers, which provide excellent temperature, moisture, and chemical resistance, as well as improved electrical insulation. The housings are also UL approved, which means they meet stringent safety and performance requirements.
The working principle of the 8-1971773-2 connector is relatively simple. When the male and female connectors are brought together, the contact pins press down firmly on each other, providing an excellent electrical connection. The contact pins contain small barbs or protrusions that ensure a strong hold over prolonged contact. The benefit of this design is that it ensures little to no slippage, while still providing a secure connection.
The 8-1971773-2 connectors are highly reliable and durable, and provide an ideal solution for a wide variety of applications. Their ability to reduce contact forces and resist abrasion makes them ideal for use in demanding applications such as medical and industrial settings. Furthermore, they provide a cost-effective solution for any consumer electronics application.
