HM2P07PK511CGF

Backplane connectors are electrical interconnect devices that are used for connecting printed circuit boards (PCBs), modules, or other electronic components in the environment. Connectors to connect backplanes are generally one of two types: standard or harsh metric. The HM2P07PK511CGF is classified as a hard metric backplane connector.

HM2P07PK511CGF Application Field and Working Principle

The HM2P07PK511CGF is a connector specifically designed for use in data communication and computer bus systems, as an integral part of a backplane or board-to-board interconnection. It is suitable for use in signal frequencies up to 3 GHz. It offers a variety of features, such as increased pin count, low profile, improved retention force and high contact density. Additionally, the HM2P07PK511CGF is compatible with other interconnection solutions, such as PCI Express, VMEbus, and MicroTCA.

The HM2P07PK511CGF is very easy to use and features a one-piece design which eliminates the need for additional components. Furthermore, the connector provides a unique “butterfly” design to allow easy connector alignment, as well as a keyed and color-coded housing to ensure correct cable management. The mating surfaces of the HM2P07PK511CGF have been manufactured using gold plating for improved performance, durability and corrosion resistance.

In terms of working principle, the HM2P07PK511CGF can be used to accomplish electrical signal or power transfer between two different PCBs. It facilitates connection by means of various contact and terminal systems: microstrip, IDC membrane, wire wrap, and solder cup among others. The contacts themselves are designed to provide a low resistance interface with the PCBs while also withstanding harsh environments.

The HM2P07PK511CGF connector contains a variety of conductive materials including gold, brass, and copper. Its contact springs are made of stainless steel for improved reliability. Additionally, these contact springs are pre-mounted and can be easily plugged into the connector. The contact surfaces are designed to provide maximum contact pressure, also avoiding oxidization by using a soldering tin cover.

In summary, the HM2P07PK511CGF is a robust and reliable hard metric type backplane connector that is suitable for high-frequency signal applications. It is an ideal solution for connecting a wide variety of devices and is compatible with other backplane interconnects such as PCI Express, VMEbus, and MicroTCA. Its unique design and use of high-quality materials ensure excellent performance and durability.
