MTB1-13PH2

Rectangular Cable Assemblies

The MTB1-13PH2 is a type of rectangular connector cable assembly, commonly used for the connections in commercial and industrial applications. It consists of a shielded four-pin connector at either end of a flat cable. As a rectangular type of cable assembly, it offers an easy and effective way to provide electrical connection without the majority of the bulk associated with other types of connectors.

Application Field

The MTB1-13PH2 cable assembly is most often found in industrial settings, where simple and effective wiring solutions are needed for various electrical systems. It is also frequently used in the fields of robotics, control, communications, and consumer electronics. The specific application of the cable assembly depends on the usage of the connector, the conductor configuration, the insulation properties of the insulation material, and the length of the cable.

Working Principle

The MTB1-13PH2 cable assembly works by providing a secure connection between two of the four pins on each end of the cable. This is done by providing a hole in the center of one side of the connector to pass the pin through. The outside of the connector then has the shielding material, such as metal or plastic, to secure the pin in place and provide protection from vibratory shock and EMF/RFI noise. Additionally, the four pins on each end of the cable are encoded to allow correct polarizing of the pins in the connectors to guarantee a secure connection between them.

The MTB1-13PH2 cable assembly offers users a relatively cost-effective way to provide electrical connections, as the external shielding and internal encoding prevent the need for specialized or expensive wiring components in most applications. It also provides additional reliability, as the one-piece design eliminates the need for mechanical splices or complex wiring. Finally, the minimal space requirements of a rectangular cable assembly make it a practical choice in many situations.
