The Molex 465629326 is the 31-position member of the EXTreme Ten60Power 46562 series — a hybrid receptacle that combines 30 signal contacts with 2 blade-style power contacts in a single housing. This is a press-fit, through-hole connector designed for backplane and power-distribution applications where a solderless assembly process is preferred.
Termination and Assembly Notes
This is standard for backplane assemblies where rework access is limited and solder defects are unacceptable. The Mating Guide feature (listed in the specs) helps align the receptacle during blind-mate insertion, reducing the risk of pin damage in multi-position connectors. All 31 positions are loaded — no optional or unpopulated cavities to account for on the PCB footprint.
