Do You Think the Electric Connector Is Common in Our Daily Life?

Do you have an idea about electric connectors? Can they be found in our daily life? Maybe you don't know it. So here we can have some information about it together.

An electrical connector http://www.ecvv.com/product_directory/connector.html is an electro-mechanical device for joining electrical circuits as an interface using a mechanical assembly. The connection may be temporary, as for portable equipment, require a tool for assembly and removal, or serve as a permanent electrical joint between two wires or devices.

There are hundreds of types of electrical connectors. In computing, an electrical connector can also be known as a physical interface. Cable glands, known as cable connectors in the U.S., connect wires to devices mechanically rather than electrically and are distinct from quick-disconnects performing the latter.

Electrical connectors are characterised by their pinout and physical construction, size, contact resistance, insulation between pins, ruggedness and resistance to vibration, resistance to entry of water or other contaminants, resistance to pressure, reliability, lifetime, and ease of connecting and disconnecting.

They may be keyed to prevent insertion in the wrong orientation, connecting the wrong pins to each other, and have locking mechanisms to ensure that they are fully inserted and cannot work loose or fall out. Some connectors are designed such that certain pins make contact before others when inserted, and break first on disconnection; this protects circuits typically in connectors that apply power, e.g. connecting safety ground first, and sequencing connections properly in hot swapping applications.

Let's see some types of connectors. 8P8C is short for "eight positions, eight conductors", and so an 8P8C modular connector is a modular connector with eight positions, all containing conductors. It is usually used for Internet connection.

The D-subminiature electrical connector is commonly used for the RS-232 serial port on modems and IBM compatible computers.

USB connectors. The Universal Serial Bus (USB) is a serial bus standard to interface devices, founded in 1996. It is currently widely used among PCs and many other devices.

Power connectors. Power connectors must protect people from accidental contact with energized conductors. Power connectors often include a safety ground connection as well as the power conductors.

Radio frequency connectors. A radio-frequency connector must not allow external signals into the circuit, and must prevent leakage of energy out of the circuit.

A DC connector is an electrical connector for supplying direct current (DC) power.

Hybrid connectors have housings with inserts that allow the intermixing of many connector types, such as those mentioned above. These housings may also allow intermixing of electrical and non-electrical interfaces, examples of the latter being pneumatic line connectors, and optical fiber connectors. For further information about electric connectors, you could visit Wikepedia website.
