MP2-H144-41S1-S-LR

MP2-H144-41S1-S-LR (often referred to simply as the MP2 connector) is a specialized backplane connector commonly used in industrial, aerospace, and communication applications. The connectors are designed to reduce the risk of shock and system failure, with a specialized coaxial connection that helps to provide superior electrical performance and reliability.

The design of the MP2 connector features a unique, two-shelf locking system which is capable of providing high retention rates. The two shelves are connected via six contact points, and a plastic separator which helps to further improve shock and vibration resistance. The connectors are also designed to ensure reliable and consistent electrical performance, with a robust solder connection which is optimized to help provide a secure mechanically-stable fit into backplane slots.

When it comes to applications that require a reliable and robust backplane connector, the MP2 is an excellent choice. It is capable of providing secure and reliable electrical performance in heavy industrials schemes, as well as within environments that may be exposed to shock and vibration. The MP2 also features a variety of port configurations, such as four and eight port models, which can accommodate various signaling types and voltages.

The working principle of the MP2 connector is relatively simple. The connector is composed of twenty-four contacts, twelve of which are ‘ground’ contacts. These twelve ground contacts act as a shield that protects the remaining contacts from potential damage or interference, while the four conductive contact points provide electrical connections between power, ground, and signal connections. The connector housing also acts as a shield against electromagnetic interference (EMI), and helps to ensure reliable and consistent electrical performance.

Overall, the MP2 is a highly versatile and reliable backplane connector capable of providing secure and reliable electrical performance in highly demanding applications. It is also capable of withstanding shock and vibration, making it an especially desirable choice for industrial, aerospace, and communication applications. The ease and simplicity of installation further enhances the appeal of the MP2, making it one of the most popular specialized backplane connectors available.
