Product Introduction
The Molex 465629309 is a 9-position receptacle from the EXTreme Ten60Power 46562 series, designed as a high-current power interconnect for board-to-wire or backplane applications. It uses female blade sockets rated 60 A per circuit — each blade carries bus-level current, so this is a pure power connector, not a signal or mixed-layout part. The 0.217" (5.50 mm) pitch provides enough creepage for the 600 VAC / 250 VDC rating without forcing an oversized footprint. Press-fit termination means it installs without solder — typical for high-reliability assemblies where rework or field replacement matters.
The contact layout is 9 Power, meaning every position is a power blade; there are no signal contacts in this variant. Press-fit termination avoids the thermal stress of wave soldering and allows pin replacement without desoldering — a real advantage in backplane or power-distribution boards where rework access is tight.
Active lifecycle — no end-of-life or last-time-buy notice. ROHS3 compliant.
