Backplane Power Header for Futurebus Systems
The TE Connectivity 5536642-1 is a Z-PACK series header in the Futurebus connector style, carrying 10 power positions arranged across 5 rows at a 6.00 mm pitch. This is a male blade header designed for press-fit termination into a through-hole backplane, with all positions loaded. The natural UL94 V-0 housing and gold flash contacts suit it for power distribution within a card cage or midplane assembly where the Futurebus form factor is specified. The 10 power contacts are laid out in a dedicated power section of the connector, meaning this header is not a mixed-signal part — every position carries the same bus-level current duty.
Press-Fit Termination for Solderless Backplane Assembly
The through-hole mounting gives the header mechanical retention against the insertion force of the mating receptacle.
Rated for Industrial Temperature Range and Flame-Retardant Housing
Gold flash contacts (minimum gold thickness not specified beyond flash) provide corrosion protection for the mating interface in a controlled indoor environment.
