The Power Dock from Molex is a simple approach to customised board-to-board power delivery. Configured appropriately, it can serve a wide variety of power applications mixed in with signalling needs. Individual power contacts are rated up to 35 A and signal contacts handle 3 A.
Using Molex's 'custom configurator', customers will be able to design their own power connector system to solve virtually any unique packaging requirement. Guide pins are available for blind mating. Mounting ears are an option for mechanical attachment to the PCB. Power blades and signal pins are available in multiple lengths for sequenced mating requirements. Press fit tails can be used where manufacturing and/or repair concerns are present. The Power Dock can be used as a drop-in replacement in many existing applications.
Features and benefits include: soldertail or press fit; sequenced mating; hot pluggable; standard modules; guide pins; flexible assembly to PCB; system protection; no system downtime for repair; custom configuration; and blind mating.
Applications include use in telecoms, power supplies and UPS, board-to-board power applications, and computers and file servers.
