Common terms and meanings of cable connectors
Release time:2019-12-10  Clicks:

First, the connector (English name Connector): Connectors are widely used in modern industry, such as industrial waterproof joints. Connectors are especially necessary in the LED sunrise industry-applications on LED displays. A connector is usually mounted (partially fixed) on a cable or industrial equipment and is a detachable component for signal transmission or power transmission.


    2. Waterproof connector (English name: Waterproof connector): Waterproof connector is a kind of connector. Compared with ordinary connectors, the waterproof connector has waterproof and dustproof performance. It can be applied to environments with water and IP. Divided by level, IP68 waterproof rating is the highest. It is particularly important to emphasize that the waterproof connector used in outdoor environments must be at least IP67, and the waterproof connector used in underwater environments must be above IP68 for all reasons. As for the specific type of waterproof connector to be used, consideration should be given to various aspects such as underwater use time or water depth.


    There are various combinations of cable connectors, which can be divided into screw type, net tail type, but also docking type and panel type.


密封 3. Sealed connector: A sealed connector refers to a connector that can meet the specified gas, moisture or liquid tightness requirements. A waterproof connector is one of them.


The basic structure of the cable connector is provided below:

The most basic structural components of a connector are four: 1. contacts; 2. insulators; 3. housings; 4. accessories.

1. Contacts: Contacts are the core component of the connector, which is equivalent to the human heart. The connector relies on contacts to complete the connection of power and signals.


2. Insulator: Insulators can also be called bases or mounting plates. The role of the insulators is to reasonably arrange the contact parts next to each other according to the required position and spacing, and play a role of bridge and control. The insulator used by Jing Xun Weiye connectors is thermoplastic PPS.


3. Shell (shell): It is easy to understand that the shell is a "leather coat" that wraps the connector for protection. In addition to the protective effect, the most important use of the connector housing is the fixing effect: it provides the principle of calibration for the two male and female heads that are connected to each other, and can be port-to-port without deviation, all thanks to the shell. In particular, the waterproof performance of the waterproof connector has a lot to do with the degree of error of the shell, and of course the silicone ring between it. The shell materials used by Jing Xun Weiye connectors include nylon PA66 / PVC and so on.


4. Accessory (accessory): Accessory is other functional parts of the connector, including structural accessories and installation accessories. For example: positioning key, coupling ring, cable clamp, silicone ring, screw, nut, screw, etc.
