92086-118TRLF

Rectangular Connectors - Headers, Receptacles, Female Sockets

The 92086-118TRLF is an example of a rectangular connector, a type of electrical connection with the purpose of providing a form-factor-specific electrical connection with the capability of making and breaking the circuit. They use a housing of one or more contacts and can be assembled and reassembled repeatedly.

Application Field

The 92086–118TRLF is used for signal, power, and data transmssion, due to its wide range of applications and certifications. These types of connectors are typically suited for applications where reliable and secure connections are required, such as in cars, data systems, telecommunications, and computers.

Working Principle

When plugged in, the connector housing is mated and ensures the engagement between the contacts within it. It consists of a plated electrical contact that is inserted into a plastic housing which encloses the contact and provides spaces for strain relief, preventing the contact from being pulled out. The contacts, typically made from copper, are normally assembled and soldered to terminal strips or printed circuit boards. Oftentimes, the contacts also provide polarization, latching, and grounding of the mating components.

Benefits

• Durable and strong
• High electrical integrity
• Low profile design
• Compatible with standard tools
• Easy to assemble
• Corrosion resistant

Conclusion

Rectangular connectors are widely used for various signal and power transmission purposes. 92086–118TRLF is a great example of that type of connector and provides an adjustable and reliable connection for applications with very stringent environmental conditions. It is robust, reliable, and durable and allows for a large number of re-assembly cycles.
