87173-150LF

Rectangular Connectors, also known as Headers and Receptacles, Female Sockets, are commonly used in multiple applications around the world. They provide reliable connections between two electrical devices, while also featuring a tight fit and precise alignment between the connecting components. However, when it comes to 87173-150LF, this particular type of Rectangular Connectors has even more to offer as far as performance, reliability, and durability are concerned.

Specifically designed to be used in data communications and instrumentation applications, the 87173-150LF offers some unique features that make it a great choice for applications where high data transfer reliability is a must. Built with an 8-pole, 4-row design, the 87173-150LF features straight-through polarization, which ensures that the signal pins are in the correct position for proper data transfer. Additionally, the 8-pole connection provides an additional layer of protection by preventing line crossings or mismatched pins.

How does the 87173-150LF work? This Rectangular Connector is designed to be inserted into a mating connector using a 4-way keyed mechanism. This ensures that the connection is properly made and aligned, as each mating connector is machined to properly interact with the 8 pins on the 87173-150LF. Once connected, the electrical signal is transmitted straight through the connector, allowing for reliable, uninterrupted data transfer.

Furthermore, the 87173-150LF features a natural glow polarized insulator, which minimizes the effects of EMI/RFI interference and improves the signal clarity between the two connectors. This ensures that data is transferred without any noise, which can reduce the overall system reliability. Additionally, the 87173-150LF is nickel-plated for improved corrosion resistance, making it suitable for harsh environments that require a high level of protection from the elements.

Overall, the 87173-150LF is an incredibly versatile and reliable Rectangular Connector designed for data communications and instrumentation applications. Its 8-pole connections and 4-way keyed mechanism ensure that the connection is always properly aligned and secure, while its natural glow polarized insulator provides an additional layer of protection for improved signal clarity. Additionally, the 87173-150LF is nickel-plated for enhanced corrosion resistance, making it the ideal choice for applications where a secure and reliable connection is a must.
