Rectangular Connectors - Headers, Receptacles, Female Sockets

Rectangular connectors are an array of electrical connectors used to provide securing components in electrical applications. These rectangular or square shaped connectors are typically composed of multiple individual pieces, such as headers, receptacles, and/or female sockets, which come together and are held secure with the help of a housing or by individual pieces with flanges.

The SSQ-114-03-S-S rectangular connector, or header/receptacle connector, is commonly used in applications such as signal or power supplies, data transfer, test points, and grounding solutions. This type of connector consists of two parts: headers and female sockets. The headers provide power or signal transmission between the circuit board and the electrical devices, while the socket ensures a reliable and secure connection.

Application Field

The SSQ-114-03-S-S rectangular connector is primarily used for automotive applications and is certified for heavy-duty applications, such as automotive power and data transfer (can bus) systems.

This connector is designed to be able to carry higher current than standard connectors and is thus able to provide higher signal and power outputs. It is also compatible with a wide range of materials commonly used in automotive applications, such as ABS/polypropylene, polyamide, and polybutylene.

Other than automotive applications, this SSQ-114-03-S-S connector is also suitable for high vibration and shock resistance applications. This is due to its construction from durable, lightweight layers, such as polypropylene, and its socket design, which ensures secure and reliable contact.

Working Principle

The SSQ-114-03-S-S rectangular connector consists of two parts: headers and a socket. The square-shaped headers provide the power or signal transmission between the circuit board and the electrical device, while the socket acts as a ‘protective\' layer that holds the two pieces together and ensures a reliable connection.

The SSQ-114-03-S-S connector is designed to be used with a range of cable types and wire gauges, so it can be used to connect a variety of circuit boards and electrical devices. Additionally, it has been tested to withstand usage at temperatures of up to 125 degrees Celsius.

In addition, the SSQ-114-03-S-S connector is designed with a unique locking mechanism which ensures its secure connection. This locking mechanism consists of a pin on the socket which engages with a groove on the header. This system ensures that the connection is not affected by vibration or movement, and provides reliable operation over time.

Conclusion

The SSQ-114-03-S-S rectangular connector is a reliable and versatile connector designed for a range of applications. It is a durable and lightweight connector which is certified for heavy-duty automotive applications such as power and data transfer systems. Additionally, it has a unique locking system ensuring secure connections which are resistant to vibration and movement. With its ability to carry higher current outputs, it is ideal for use in high vibration and shock resistance applications.
