What is the Molex 0465629210?
The Molex 0465629210 is a 10-circuit receptacle from the EXTreme Ten60Power 46562 series, designed as a high-current power interconnect for board-to-busbar or backplane applications. It accepts female blade sockets in a single-row, 5.50 mm pitch layout, with all 10 positions loaded. The press-fit termination eliminates soldering, making it suited for solderless backplane assembly where rework must be minimized.
The 60 A per contact rating is the headline spec: each blade handles the kind of current you would expect on a power bus bar, not a signal trace.
Termination and mounting — press-fit for backplane duty
The through-hole mounting type provides mechanical retention before the connector is mated, and the tray packaging is typical for press-fit connectors that are placed by robotic assembly rather than pick-and-place.
The 10-power contact layout means all 10 positions are dedicated to power delivery — no signal pins mixed in. The single-row, 5.50 mm pitch layout aligns with the corresponding header's footprint.
