Rectangular Connectors - Free Hanging, Panel Mount are two types of connectors that enable efficient and flexible connections between electronic devices and systems. The free hanging type is suitable for scenarios that require flexible wiring or limited space. It is directly suspended and connected through cables for easy installation and maintenance. The panel installation type is designed specifically for fixed installation on equipment panels, secured with screws or other fasteners to ensure a stable and reliable connection. This type of connector typically consists of an insulated housing, conductive contacts, locking mechanisms, and protective devices, among other components. It offers advantages such as flexible installation, high transmission rate, and low contact resistance.

Rectangular Connectors - Free Hanging, Panel Mount are widely used in various fields. In the communication industry, they are commonly used for internal and external connections of devices such as base stations, switches, routers, etc. In the field of industrial automation, rectangular connectors serve as a bridge between devices such as PLCs, sensors, and actuators. In data center servers, rectangular connectors installed on panels are used to connect servers to power distribution units, achieving efficient and stable power supply. In automotive electronic systems, freely suspended rectangular connectors facilitate flexible layout and quick maintenance of complex wiring harnesses inside the vehicle.

• 1. Common packaging methods for rectangular connectors?

  1. Panel-mounted packaging
  Panel-mounted packaging is the most common form of rectangular connector, which allows the connector to be directly fixed to the housing or panel of the device. This packaging method is usually achieved by screw locking, snap-on fixing or crimping to ensure a stable connection between the connector and the panel. The advantages of panel-mounted packaging are easy and quick installation, easy maintenance and replacement, and good mechanical strength and protection level. It is suitable for scenarios that require frequent plugging and unplugging or high protection requirements, such as industrial control equipment, communication equipment, medical equipment, etc.
  
  2. PCB Mounting Package
  PCB mounting packaging is another widely used rectangular connector packaging method. It directly solders the connector on the PCB (printed circuit board) and realizes electrical connection through pins or pads. This packaging method has the advantages of small size, light weight, flexible layout, etc., which can save space to the maximum extent and improve the integration of the circuit board. It is widely used in computers, consumer electronics, automotive electronics and other fields, especially in occasions with extremely high space requirements, such as mobile phones, tablets and other portable devices.
  
  3. Pin header and socket combination packaging
  The pin header and socket combination packaging is a packaging form in which the two parts of the connector (pin header and socket) are designed separately and then electrically connected by plugging. This packaging method is easy to plug and unplug and easy to replace and upgrade, and is particularly suitable for scenarios where frequent module replacement or system upgrade is required. For example, in the fields of test equipment, modular data centers, etc., the pin header and socket combination packaging can significantly improve the flexibility and maintainability of the system.
  
  4. Mixed packaging
  With the continuous development of electronic technology, a single packaging method has been difficult to meet the complex and changing application requirements. Therefore, mixed packaging came into being, which combines multiple packaging methods to form a comprehensive solution. For example, combining panel mounting with printed circuit board mounting not only ensures the stability of the connector, but also improves the integration of the circuit board; or combining the pin and socket combination with modular design to achieve a more flexible and changeable system configuration.
  
  5. Special environmental adaptability packaging
  In some special environments, such as high temperature, low temperature, high humidity, strong electromagnetic interference, etc., higher requirements are placed on the packaging method of rectangular connectors. To this end, a variety of special environmental adaptability packages have been developed, such as high temperature resistant packaging, waterproof packaging, anti-electromagnetic interference packaging, etc. These packaging methods improve the environmental adaptability of the connector by using special materials and optimizing structural design, ensuring that it can still work stably and reliably in harsh environments.

• 2. Rectangular connector usage environment?

  1. Ambient temperature: refers to the use within the ambient temperature specified by the product. Even if the external ambient temperature is not high, if the product works in the chassis, the heat dissipation conditions are poor and the heating of other components will cause the ambient temperature of the product to be much higher than the external ambient temperature. Using it beyond the specified ambient temperature can also damage the metal plating or insulator.
  2. Humidity or water: Humidity or water will form a water film on the surface of the insulator, which will reduce the insulation performance and even cause miscommunication between adjacent contact parts. Generally, connectors that are used in high humidity or water conditions for a long time should use sealing connectors.
  3. Low air pressure: The air pressure will decrease under high altitude conditions (except in a constant air pressure sealed chamber). When the product is under low air pressure conditions, the dielectric withstand voltage of the product will decrease. If the transmitted voltage is higher than the requirements of the product technical conditions, electrical breakdown may occur, causing failure.
  4. Corrosive environment: refers to the atmosphere around the product when it is working, such as salt spray at sea, acid and alkali in chemical raw material storage warehouses, etc. These conditions will cause corrosion and erosion to the metal parts and insulators of the connector. When selecting connectors, special requirements can be made to the manufacturer or products that can meet these requirements can be selected.
  5. Mechanical conditions: refers to mechanical effects such as vibration, impact, acceleration, etc., and are selected according to the parameters in the micro-rectangular connector sample. In fact, in actual use, the cable and the contact should be crimped and fixed with a wire clamp or other means. Cables that are too long and have no fixing measures will endanger the safety of the cable under the action of external forces such as vibration or impact. In severe cases, it will cause cable breakage and micro-rectangular connector damage.
