Where the class is used
The 464369309: EXTreme Ten60Power blade sockets are board-level power interconnects deployed in industrial automation enclosures, power supplies, and motor drives where several tens of amps per circuit need to cross a board interface cleanly. The right-angle orientation routes the bus or cable entry parallel to the PCB plane, which is the typical arrangement in rack-mount power units and sealed industrial enclosures where vertical board space is constrained but horizontal routing is available. Press-fit termination extends the addressable market to applications where wave-soldering thermal exposure is undesirable — such as hybrid assemblies that carry both press-fit and surface-mount components on the same board.
Sourcing and lifecycle
The 464369309 is listed Active and ROHS3 Compliant — the series base product number is 046436, which ties it directly to the standard EXTreme Ten60Power 46436 series lifecycle. No official successor or cross-reference order code is on record for this specific 9-position variant, so the sourcing path is direct: quoted to order against the BOM quantity via RFQ, with the pitch, position count, and current rating confirming BOM-line fit before committing. Confirm the mating half by series — the female blade socket is the receptacle side; the corresponding right-angle or vertical male blade header in the 46436 series is the half to specify on the adjacent board or cable entry.
