SHF-108-01-F-D-SM-TR

SHF-108-01-F-D-SM-TR connectors are widely used in the electronics industry, and they are a type of rectangular connectors – headers, male pins. This style of connector is very popular due to its low profile, cost effective, and ease of use.

The SHF-108-01-F-D-SM-TR is a straight pin male header with a length of 0.24 inches (6.1 mm) and a distance between two adjacent mounting holes of 0.1 inches (2.54 mm). The connector has 108 positions, formed in two 11 by 13 rows, each one having 12 pins at the center of the width, followed by 11 pins spaced at the outside edges. The outside rows have all 13 pins, while the center rows have 4 outer pins and 9 inner pins. Additionally, these connectors have female posts with insulation displacement contacts, which makes them superb for a wide selection of applications in the electronics industry.

Application Field

Given the number of positions and its compact size, the SHF-108-01-F-D-SM-TR is ideal for most applications related to board-to-cable connections, providing an effective solution for connecting multiple circuits together in the most cost effective manner. Their low profile design is a great feature in tight spaces, because it not only saves space, but also reduces the stress and strain on the cables and connectors.

The SHF-108-01-F-D-SM-TR finds particular application in telecom and mechanical applications as well as in audio and automotive systems, allowing for the complementary parts to be easily mated and unmated for repeated installations. This versatility makes them suitable for a wide range of applications, such as assembly machines, vibration testing equipment, communication systems, and other network applications where high density and highly reliable connections are needed.

Working Principle

The working principle of the SHF-108-01-F-D-SM-TR connector is based on the insulation displacement contact (IDC) technology, which is one of the most advanced systems in the industry. This technology uses a specific type of contact that is designed to cut through the insulation of the contact to make an electrical connection without the need for soldering or stripping the insulation. The contact is placed in a slot and then pressed down with a special tool. This causes the contact to pierce the insulation of the cable, creating a secure and reliable connection. The contact is then retained in place through tension, providing a reliable connection that\'s able to withstand the stresses of high-frequency and high-speed applications.

Overall, the SHF-108-01-F-D-SM-TR is a reliable and robust solution for a wide variety of applications. Its versatility and low-profile construction make it perfect for tight spaces, and the insulation displacement contact technology allows for highly reliable connections to be made quickly and easily. All of these features ensure that the SHF-108-01-F-D-SM-TR is one of the most versatile and reliable solutions for the electronics industry.
