Rectangular Connectors - Headers, Receptacles, Female Sockets

Rectangular connectors, also known as a right-angle connectors, come in two types: headers and receptacles. Headers are the male connectors that plug into a socket, while receptacles are the female connectors that are plugged into.

The 87988-5 is a type of rectangular connector and is most commonly used in instrumentation and automation applications. It is a three-pole right-angle female socket with 5mm pitch and is designed for use with a 20 to 24 AWG wire. The 87988-5 rectangular connector has a maximum current rating of 5A and a voltage rating of 250V.

These types of connectors offer a reliable and cost-effective solution for interconnections between electronic devices such as laptops, desktop computers, game consoles, and media players. The connectors are also commonly used in industrial automation and power distribution applications.

In industrial applications, the 87988-5 rectangular connector works by providing an electrical and mechanical connection between a line in a wire harness and a board-mounted component such as a motor, a relay, or a capacitor. The connector has two parts: the body and the contact. The body is a plastic casing that holds the contact in place. The contact consists of two pins that are soldered onto the board-mounted device. When the two parts are connected, a current is passed from the board-mounted component to the wire harness, and vice versa.

The 87988-5 rectangular connectors are also designed for applications that require a secure connection with minimum power loss. As a result, the connectors are designed with an insulation displacement contact (IDC) system. This system uses a pin and blade assembly that pierces through the insulation of the wire, providing a secure connection between the wire and the contact without the use of solder.

Overall, the 87988-5 rectangular connector is a reliable and cost-effective solution for making connections between multiple devices and components. With its IDC system, the connector offers a secure and low-power connection, making it a great choice for both instrumentation and power distribution applications.
