TE Connectivity Sliding Power Connector

TE Connectivity's (TE) Sliding Power Connector is one of the only connectors of its kind that allows for hot swapping of components in a server drawer. This power solution is ideal for applications up to 75A and eliminates the need for a bulky cable management system within the drawer. TE's Sliding Power Connector shows improved voltage drop over cables due to a more direct path from the power source to the server. The Sliding Power Connector offers increased reliability over cables and a simpler design that is less prone to disconnection from the power source.
