SFM-118-01-S-D-A-N

The SFM-118-01-S-D-A-N is a type of rectangular connector that falls within the headers, receptacles, and female sockets category. Apart from providing an easier way of connecting several electrical components into a single power source, this particular connector effectively solve the issue of inadequate spacing between boards, and is therefore an excellent choice for tight-spacing applications. Additionally, this connector is a trusted choice among engineers since it has a highly-reliable, two-piece trace-sensing connector design.

The SFM-118-01-S-D-A-N rectangular connector is popularly used for a variety of applications. It is most commonly used in commercial goods such as computer systems and other electronic equipment. For more specialized applications, it is also suitable for cable shields, audio/video home entertainment systems, and medical devices.

The SFM-118-01-S-D-A-N rectangular connector is a two-piece construction, which consists of a header and receptacle. It features an integrated grounding spring, designed to provide an electrical path between a board and panel braid, to facilitate proper radiation of EMI signals. Furthermore, the receptacle has an integrated socket retention feature to ensure secure contacts along with a latch engagement that has a positively locking mechanism. Finally, the connector is rated up to 25 Amps, and 250 volts at 600 psi of pressure.

The working principle of SFM-118-01-S-D-A-N is quite simple and straightforward. Once the connector is securely connected to the board, the interlocking latch located at the back of the receptacle will engage with the header. This latch securely locks the connector in place and the electrical connection is complete. Additionally, the integrated socket retention feature helps keep the contacts and socket from any form of disconnection and provides a secure connection between the boards.

Overall, the use of the SFM-118-01-S-D-A-N rectangular connector is a great way to improve the utility and efficiency of both commercial and speciality applications such as cable shields, audio/video entertainment systems, and medical devices. Thus, this connector is highly recommended for tight-spacing applications that require a secure, reliable electrical connection between boards.
