Firewire Receptacle for IEEE 1394 Interfaces
The Molex 0534600611 is a 6-contact Firewire (IEEE 1394) receptacle from the 53460 series, designed for shielded high-speed serial bus connections.
Obsolete — Sourcing via Broker Channel
Molex has marked the 0534600611 as Obsolete. For production or repair needs, the only practical channel is the surplus and broker market — where traceable date-coded stock can be located.
Shielded Shell and Board Layout Fit
The phosphor bronze shielded shell provides EMI containment for the Firewire differential pairs, critical for maintaining signal quality at the 400 Mbps data rates typical of IEEE 1394a. The vertical flag mounting feature means the receptacle body orients the cable exit 90° from the board plane — a common requirement when the connector must be accessed from the edge of a metal enclosure or panel cutout.
