Rectangular Connectors: Housings

PS2-42SC is a multi-pin, two-row, shielded type, high density rectangular connector, housing 42 signal contact points. This connector allows for a higher level of functional density and can connect with more factory components than when using alternative solutions. Its design to meet the needs of more stringent environmental requirements, and more complex applications such as Gigabit Ethernet and CAN buses.

Application Field

The PS2-42SC connector is found in a variety of applications, including industrial, telecommunications, automotive, and networking. For industrial use, its high-density design allows for more connections with less space, making it a more cost-effective solution where space is a premium. In addition, it is well suited for applications where there are multiple cables, as it is easy to use, inexpensive, and has a proven reliability record.

The telecommunications industry commonly uses the PS2-42SC connector in its Ethernet-based networks that require more signal transfer than alternative solutions. Similarly, the connector is typically found in automotive applications that require a higher level of wear resistance and vibration protection. Finally, it is found in many networking applications, such as Ethernet, Serial ATA, and Universal Serial Bus (USB), as it offers a high speed data transfer rate and wide bandwidth.

Working Principle

The PS2-42SC connector is designed to meet a variety of contact arrangements, with 2 to 17 pins located in the front and 2 to 25 pins located in the rear. The mating surfaces consist of steel plated contacts with an integral spring clip. The spring clip enables a secure connection to minimize contact resistance and ensure proper alignment of the poles. The connector bodies are manufactured from black nylon or aluminum, depending on the application. Moreover, shielding on the contacts offers protection from electromagnetic interference (EMI) and radio frequency interference (RF) for high frequency applications.

To ensure the proper mating and operation of the connector, a range of accessories are available. These include hoods, strain reliefs, grommets, and terminal strips. The hoods prevent the connector from being pulled apart and are also used to protect the mating surfaces from dirt, dust, and moisture. The strain reliefs help prevent cable movement during operation and provide protection from harsh environments. The grommets protect the individual conductors from abrasion, and the terminal strips provide electrical connections to each of the contact pins.
