Molex PowerPlane Bus Bar Connector Family
Molex's PowerPlane Bus Bar Power Connectors deliver high-current performance along with various configurations and feature options, making them applicable for a wide range of power-distribution. The PowerPlane Bus Bar Power Connector family includes a 320.0A Vertical Bus Bar Connector (Series 45711), 180.0A Bus Bar Receptacle (Series 172201) and 60.0A Low-Profile Bus Bar Connector (Series 173708).
OEMs across many industries require higher current from power sources and usually, high-power connectors can be bulky and create thermal management problems. Molex's PowerPlane Bus Bar Power Connectors provide compact, high-current PCB-to-bus-bar connectivity. In its small design, Molex's connectors support airflow, which aids in thermal management. With a variety of interfaces, the Bus Bar Power Connectors offer flexibility across a number of industries. The PowerPlane Bus Bar Connectors also eliminate the need to wire connectors, which prevents end-product failure and reduces material and labor costs.
