The **FNS-5W5-R** is a specific electronic component, typically categorized as a **D-Sub (Subminiature) Mixed Contact Power Connector**. It is designed for applications requiring a combination of high-current power transmission and signal integrity within a compact interface. --- ### ## Technical Specifications | Feature | Specification | | :--- | :--- | | **Connector Type** | D-Sub Power (Combo-D) | | **Contact Arrangement** | 5W5 (5 Power Contacts) | | **Gender** | Receptacle (Female Socket) | | **Termination Style** | Right Angle Through-Hole (PCB Mount) | | **Current Rating** | Typically 20A to 40A per power contact | | **Shell Material** | Steel (usually Tin or Nickel plated) | | **Insulator Material** | PBT or High-Temp Thermoplastic (UL 94V-0) | --- ### ### Key Electronic Components & Features 1. **5W5 Configuration**: The "5W5" designation indicates that the connector shell is the size of a standard 25-pin D-sub, but it is populated with **5 large-scale power contacts** instead of small signal pins. All 5 positions are dedicated to "W" (Power/High Voltage) contacts. 2. **Right-Angle (R) Orientation**: The "-R" suffix denotes a **Right-Angle PCB mount**. This is crucial for electronic assemblies where the connector sits on the edge of a circuit board, allowing cables to be plugged in parallel to the board surface. 3. **High-Current Handling**: Unlike standard D-subs that handle 1A–5A, the FNS-5W5-R is engineered with machined copper alloy contacts. These provide low contact resistance, enabling the part to handle heavy loads without overheating. 4. **Mechanical Shielding**: The metal "D" shell provides EMI/RFI shielding and ensures the connector is polarized (cannot be plugged in upside down), protecting the electronic circuits from reverse polarity. --- ### ### Typical Applications * **Power Supplies**: Distributing DC power to peripheral modules. * **Industrial Automation**: Connecting motor controllers or high-draw actuators. * **Telecommunications**: Used in base stations where high amperage is required in a small footprint. * **Medical Equipment**: Reliable power delivery for imaging or surgical devices. ---
