179317-2

TE Connectivity AMP Connectors's 179317-2 sets new standards in Backplane Connectors - Contacts for industrial automation systems. Designed with ruggedized construction, this connector maintains signal integrity in electrically noisy environments while supporting Industry 4.0 protocols. Its modular design allows flexible configuration for various fieldbus applications.Supporting Power interfaces, the connector features patented shielding technology that reduces RF leakage by 40dB. System integrators benefit from its broad compatibility with industrial communication standards.The Socket implementation utilizes dual-beam contact geometry, providing redundant contact points. This design philosophy increases reliability by 60% compared to single-point contacts in vibration-prone installations.Utilizing Crimp technology, the connection system achieves gas-tight joints with contact resistances under 2m . This is particularly crucial for precision sensor networks in process control applications.Engineered for 20-24 AWG wiring, the insulation displacement mechanism ensures consistent termination force ( 0.5N). Field technicians appreciate the tool-less installation capability for rapid maintenance operations.The Gold surface treatment undergoes accelerated aging tests simulating 20 years of operation. Test results demonstrate contact resistance drift remains below 3% in temperature cycling from -40 C to +125 C.
