Rectangular Connectors - Headers, Receptacles, Female Sockets

Rectangular connectors, or rectangular header and receptacle sets, have been around for a long time and are used in countless applications. One such type, 89891-832HLF, is a multi-pin mixed-signal header and receptacle set with a 0.5 inch pitch and 2mm pin size. This header and receptacle set, when used together, can provide power and data connectivity for a range of designs, including signals for USB, networking, video, and audio.

Application Field

These rectangular connectors are particularly useful when space is restricted, as they provide a low-profile, easy to use connector set that can be mounted on panels, enclosures, or other boards. Such uses may include joining boards within a system, connecting a backplane, supplying power, or link signals to remote locations. 89891-832HLF is designed for professional audio-visual equipment, telecom data communications, or audio mixing consoles.

Working Principle

The 89891-832HLF connectors are rated for 500VAC 50Hz and are designed to provide efficient transmitting of up to 5.0A. It is designed with data and power contacts that are arranged in alternating sequence. The contact area is designed to assure proper contact during mating and utilizes a spring clip to ensure robust contact retention. The housing is constructed with hi-impact thermoplastic and is rated to UL94V-0, for superior performance and ultimate safety. These connectors enable the customer to configure high-speed serial data solutions with data rates up to 2.5Gb/s.

The contacts are made of phosphor bronze with gold plating, for reliable connections between the header and receptacle. The design is also IP54 rated, or IP64, when mated, which keeps out dust and water even in harsh industrial environments. This is important for all-weather usage of the connectors, such as in outdoor audio-visual systems.

In addition, 89891-832HLF is also RoHS compliant and certified. This means manufacturers can use this product in a variety of applications without any worry, knowing that it meets and exceeds the standards of both the EU and the US.

In summary, 89891-832HLF is designed for when space is limited and multiple configurations are needed. The advantage of this connector set is that it is a low-profile, easy to use, efficient design that is suitable for a variety of applications. Its robust design ensures reliable connections and data rates up to 2.5Gb/s, while being RoHS and IP54/IP64 rated.
