870-10-005-20-001000

Rectangular Connectors such as 870-10-005-20-0010 are widely used in electrical and electronic industry. They feature multiple pins or contacts which allow connection of wires, printed circuit boards (PCBs) and other components through a variety of methods. This allows electrical and electronic products to become more reliable and effective in applications such as industrial electronics, medical devices, telecommunications, automotive, and consumer electronics.

The 870-10-005-20-0010 Connectors are part of a family of interconnections known as “Combined Plug/Jack” connectors. It utilizes a two piece combination that has a standardized IEC 61076-2-101 mating interface to enable electrical connection of two circuits. The 870-10-005-20-0010 provides the largest available mating interface for quick and secure connection between circuits.

The 870-10-005-20-0010 series has a male header or “plug” part which has a coarse, notched-pin design. This allows it to maintain a firm mating with a mating female socket or “jack”. The male plug is typically connected to a printed circuit board, for example. The female socket is then connected to a mating component such as a module.

The 870-10-005-20-0010 has a total of 10 contacts and a mating pitch of 2.00 mm. Every two contacts are spaced 0.50mm apart. The male plug contacts are made of phosphor bronze with either a tin or gold plating. The female jack contacts are made of brass with nickel plated. Male pins are rated at 5A and supports up to 750VAC. The female receptacle is rated at 2A and supports up to 400VAC.

The 870-10-005-20-0010 connector series is usually inserted from the top or bottom into mating slots. When the connection is mated, the electrical contacts inside the plug are interconnected with the electrical contacts inside the socket, thus providing a secure electrical connection between the components.

These connectors are most commonly used in industrial automation, medical instrumentation, broadcast and military applications, and a variety of other applications. The 870-10-005-20-0010 is an all-purpose connector that provides an economical and convenient solution the ever-changing demands of various applications.
