MS3185-16-1 application field and working principle

Circular connectors are commonly used in our daily lives in a wide range of areas such as audio, telecommunications, computer, automotive and so on. Circular Connectors - Accessories, such as MS3185-16-1, are one of the most widely used products in these areas. In this article, we will introduce its application field, working principle as well as its features.

MS3185-16-1 series products are specially designed for use in the aerospace industry, military and scientific research. It is applicable to high-frequency signals or optical fiber applications that require a combination of power and signal contacts. In addition, it can also be used in harsh or extreme environment which needs high durability, as the product is designed to be vibrated, shock-proof and corrosion-resistant.

As to its working principle, The MS3185-16-1is based on a symmetrical design which allows its contacts to be configured in accordance with the unique requirements of each application. It achieves a highly reliable connection and protection from temperatures, chemicals, and extreme vibration. For a power contact, the contact design is such that power enters the body of the connector and is then distributed to the outer walls of the connector. These outer walls also act as the signal contact at the same time. In this fashion, each contact is arranged around the center pin.

MS3185-16-1 accessories outstanding features includes its reduced design size that is significantly smaller than its counterparts in the same performance range, the 360-degree shielded contact protection and the easy coupling. It also incorporates a shielding and grounding feature which allows easy access to the electrical and signal grounds. Multipleshielding and grounding points are added to ensure maximum cable protection.

In conclusion, MS3185-16-1 series product is an innovative compact connector which performs better when compared to other circulare connectors. It can provide dust and water protection up to IP 67 for environment with heavy ordinance. Robust locking system makes it ideal even for the most demanding applications.
