Introduction to Circular Connectors - Backshells and Cable Clamps

Circular connectors are a type of electrical connector designed to provide a reliable connection between two electrical components, or between two sections of a cable assembly. Circular connectors can have either active or passive contact elements. The active contact elements consist of pins, sockets, blades or pins, depending on the type of connector. The passive contact elements consist of two or more contact surfaces, often referred to as backshells, which can also be coated with insulating materials. At one end of the connector, the passive contact elements come together to form a metal or plastic sleeve, or a "cable clamp", which is then inserted into the connector.

Different Applications of Circular Connectors

Circular connectors can be used for various applications such as power, signal, data and computer interconnects, as well as for conducting electrical currents and transferring data signals. They can also be found in wiring harnesses, automotive, medical, consumer electronics, communications, industrial and aerospace systems.

TXR41AB90-2216BI Application Field and Working Principle

The TXR41AB90-2216BI is a circular connector of high quality and performance, often used in harsh environments and applications that require high levels of moisture and chemical resistance. The product consists of a male and female connector, a backshell, and a cable clamp. It is an ideal choice for applications where environments may be hazardous such as factories, mines, off-shore equipment and wet or wet/dry applications. The TXR41AB90-2216BI is designed to provide a reliable, robust and secure connection between two sections of a cable assembly. The contacts are sealed with a waterproof sleeve, ensuring that the connection does not become corroded or damaged by harsh environments.

The TXR41AB90-2216BI has a working principle that involves the use of two contact elements that attach to the backshell. The contact elements create an electrical connection between two conductors, with the inner contact element passing the current from one conductor to the other. The outer contact element also provides mechanical stability and helps to reduce further electromagnetic interference. The robust backshell is designed to protect the entire assembly from vibration and shocks.

Conclusion

The TXR41AB90-2216BI is a reliable, robust and secure circular connector ideal for applications that require an exceptional level of performance in harsh environments. Its waterproof sleeve, robust backshell, and two contact elements provide maximum protection and a reliable connection between two sections of a cable assembly. It is an ideal choice for a large variety of applications including automotive, medical, consumer electronics, communications, industrial and aerospace.
