The MTSW-117-08-S-S-280 Rectangular Connectors-Headers, Male Pins are widely used in a variety of electronic and industrial applications. This type of connector is capable of providing a reliable electrical connection between two cables, and can be used in a range of applications from networking to computer and audio/video systems.

The MTSW connectors  feature a rugged metal shell and are available in two- and four-pin styles. The pins are made of tempered steel and are gold plated for superior conductivity and durability. They are also rated for up to ten amps of current. The pins on the connectors have threaded holes that can accept mounting screws, which can provide additional stability while the connectors are in use. The shell of the connectors is designed with a smooth finish to make it easier to install and engage the pins.

The MTSW-117-08-S-S-280 connectors have a wide range of applications. They can be used in computer, audio and video applications, such as in a motherboard, backplane or audio/video card. They can also be used in networking applications, such as when connecting cable to a router or switch. In industrial applications, these connectors are often used to connect electrical components or to create device interfaces. They can also be used to connect cables to a power source.

The working principle of the MTSW-117-08-S-S-280 connectors is relatively simple. The contacts on the connector are spring-loaded, which creates tension on the pins. This tension ensures that the electrical connection between the two cables is maintained and prevents any unintentional disconnection. The pins also have a locking mechanism built into them, which further helps to ensure a reliable electrical connection.

The MTSW-117-08-S-S-280 connectors are a reliable and affordable way to ensure a secure electrical connection between two cables. The rugged metal shell and gold-plated pins make them durable and reliable over time. The wide range of applications they are used in make them a popular and versatile choice for a variety of electronic and industrial applications.
