The core features of the 13W3 high-current d connector (13 signal pins + 3 high-current pins) along with the unique “bending” PCB mounting process. How does it address customer pain points and help resolve issues? It stands out among dsub connector.
1. High-density servers and communication base stations (to address issues of spatial interference).
Client pain point: Within a standard 1U or 2U server chassis, PCB boards are arranged extremely compactly. When using conventional Straight 13W3 connectors, the protruding solder legs and cable interfaces at the end often come into physical contact (conflict) with adjacent circuit boards or metal chassis housings.
Solution: The customer opted for a 13W3 connector with a 90-degree bend (right angle/elbow).
Real-world application: Three large-current terminals (typically capable of carrying 10A to 40A) are used to provide core power supply for the main board or sub-card, while 13 signal terminals are responsible for transmitting high-speed data or status monitoring signals (capable of carrying 5A). The bent design allows the connectors to “lie” along the edge of the PCB board, perfectly avoiding internal space conflicts and enabling lateral cable routing.
2. Industrial automation control cabinets (optimization of internal wiring)
Customer pain point: In PLC control modules or servo drivers, engineers would like the power cables and control signal cables to be routed out of the cable channels on the side of the device rather than through the back, making it easier for field technicians to connect and maintain the equipment.
Real-world application: The 13 pin d sub connector, which employs a flanged bending installation method. The large-current terminals directly drive external relays or small motors, while the 13 signal positions connect various sensor feedback. The bending design ensures that the cable routing is parallel to the cabling tracks on the side of the cabinet, greatly enhancing the neatness of the wiring and the device’s EMC (electromagnetic compatibility) performance.
