What is a Relay connector?

A connector plays a role as an interface for connecting devices and parts from the outside in an electronic device, and is a device for connecting and disconnecting connected devices in a safe state. A relay connector is a device for connecting devices to each other. It is a connector for relay connection. Among the relay connectors, we have a rich lineup with different specifications depending on the application, such as for external connection, internal connection, and for automobiles and industrial equipment.

Application of Relay connector

The relay connector is used to safely connect and disconnect devices during relay. Many relay connectors for external connection have excellent operability, such as being locked with a single touch. Since the relay connector for internal connection is used for relaying on the board, it is specially made to save space and prevent connection by using a large number of relay connectors. The waterproof relay connector has a spring structure at the contact part, and the contact is made only when the connector is completely fitted and locked. While the connector is incompletely fitted, the repulsive force of the spring separates the connector so that it cannot be touched. The relay connector for in-vehicle use has excellent resistance to high voltage and high heat resistance, and has high-performance specifications that clear the test conditions corresponding to the standards of the automobile to be installed.
