A-2004-3-1

A-2004-3-1 application field and working principle

A-2004-3-1 is a type of modular connector or jack. It is a somewhat larger version of the 8/8-pin modular plug also known as 8P8C. It is widely used in telecommunications, computing systems, and test equipment requiring a high number of contacts within a limited space.

Typical applications of the A-2004-3-1 modular plug include transmission of data between computers, voice and audio signals over telephone systems, and interconnection of server racks in data centers. For such high speed data transmission, data integrity and signal quality is important. Therefore, the A-2004-3-1 plug is designed with an advanced contact system to provide stable connections and low contact resistance.

Unlike regular USB connectors, the A-2004-3-1 jack utilizes a modular architecture consisting of a set of pins with a retention clip, an outer sleeve, and a contact shield. The contact shield is made of high-grade metal and is designed to provide maximum EMI/RFI shielding. The inner sleeve is surrounded by the insulation and dielectric materials to minimize contact resistance and maximize signal integrity. The pins are soldered firmly onto the circuit board to ensure permanent contact with the socket. Once the components are assembled, a latch mechanism is used to secure them.

The A-2004-3-1 connector is capable of withstanding up to 17 volts at 1 ampere. However, most applications do not require such high power input. In general, the A-2004-3-1 plug is intended for low voltage, low power applications. The contacts are arranged in a D series configuration, with the male connector having 36 pins and the female connector having 36 sockets.

The A-2004-3-1 connector is a reliable and cost-effective solution for high-speed data transmission and interconnection of electrical components. Its modular design allows for easy installation and maintenance, while its advanced contact system ensures signal integrity and data security. The connector is suitable for many applications in the telecommunication, networking, and computing industries and can be used to interconnect a wide variety of electronic components and systems.
