5.2.2. Mechanical Constraints
5.2.2.1. Micro-Fit Connector
The following table lists the mechanical constraints that must be taken into account when using the 8-
pin Micro-Fit connector.
Table 16: Micro-Fit Connector Mechanical Constraints
Description
Mechanical Limit
Notes
Connector Mate and
Unmate Forces
MINIMUM withdrawal force: 3.7N (0.8lbf)
This is the least amount of force needed
to unplug the cable from the 8-pin
Micro-Fit connector.
MAXIMUM insertion force: 8.0N (1.8lbf)
This is the maximum amount of force
that should be used when inserting a
male connector into the 8-pin Micro-Fit
connector. Using force greater than this
might damage the Micro-Fit connector.
Terminal Retention
Force (in housing)
MINIMUM retention force: 24.5N (5.5lbf)
This is the least amount of force needed
to keep the power supply cable
connected to the 8-pin Micro-Fit
connector.
Terminal Insertion
Force (into housing)
MAXIMUM insertion force: 14.7N (3.3lbf)
This is the maximum amount of force
that should be used when pushing in
the power supply cable into the 8-pin
Micro-Fit connector. Using force greater
than this might damage the Micro-Fit
connector.
5.2.2.2. FME Connector
The following table lists the mechanical constraints that must be taken into account when using the
FME RF connector.
