Design Engineering Note: 35-Position Hybrid Power/Signal Receptacle
The Molex 465629330 is the 35-position member of the EXTreme Ten60Power 46562 series — a hybrid receptacle that combines 30 signal contacts with 10 power blades in a single black UL94 V-0 housing. Each power blade is rated 60A per circuit, which means this connector carries bus-level current on the power positions, not signal-level duty.
The 600VAC / 250VDC dual rating covers both AC power distribution and DC bus applications; the 250VDC limit is the tighter constraint for a DC rail design. Press-fit termination means the connector is pressed into plated through-holes on the backplane — no solder, so rework is cleaner and the board sees less thermal stress.
