Rectangular Connectors - Headers, Male Pins

M80-8262042P Application Field and Working Principle

The M80-8262042P (P for pin) is a male pin rectangular connector from the M80 series of connectors manufactured and distributed by Hirose Electronic Components (HEC). It is designed for use in the communications and computing industry. The M80-8262042P is a high-performance male pin connector that is suitable for a wide variety of applications which include but are not limited to networking equipment, server racks, and storage networking systems.

The M80-8262042P is made from molded plastic and features a combination of a male multiple pin type and a female multiple contact type. The male pins are spaced at 5mm pitch with 2.4mm diameter. It has a 12-pin configuration and features a single row design for maximum wiring space. The M80-8262042P has a maximum rated current of 2A and a maximum rated voltage of 20V.

The M80-8262042P is designed for a safe and reliable connection that provides high-strength strain relief and electrical insulation. It is designed with a positive-lock mechanism that prevents connector unmating due to forces applied to the cables, as well as seismic loads, strain, and vibration. It is also designed with an earth/ground lug that guarantees rapid and secure contact on the mating side of the plug. The M80-8262042P also features a 360° rotational plastic guide post for easy and quick alignment. Its special design and excellent shielding characteristics make it an ideal choice for high-speed transmission.

The working principle of the M80-8262042P is based on the transmission of electricity or other forms of energy from one component or device to another with the help of the electrical connections involved. The M80-8262042P is designed with two male pins that when connected, make an electrical connection between the two components. The electrical connections are in turn related to the internal circuitry of the device or component so that the power or signal can be transferred. The power/signal is sent through the use of alternating current (AC). The input signal is then transformed into a digital signal that is suitable for computing applications and communications.

The M80-8262042P provides a safe and reliable connection for rapid and secure contact on the mating side of the plug. Its single row design provides the maximum wiring space for easy installation. The M80-8262042P has a high-strength strain relief and electrical insulation to protect against impacts and other forces applied to the cables. The device is suitable for a wide variety of applications including networking equipment, server racks, and storage networking systems. It is an essential device for safe and reliable transmission of electricity or other forms of energy from one component or device to another.
