46817 Datasheet, PDF (1/4 Pages) Molex Electronics Ltd. – EXTreme Guardian™ Power Connector System

Exceed high-current and reliability demands in top-end server and high-power
applications with Molex’s compact, EXTreme Guardian™ header and cable
system assembly
EXTreme Guardian™ header and cable assemblies, previously named EXTreme
Power™ Interconnect (EPIC), features small package sizes with a centerline
pitch of 11.00mm. The system supports up to 80.0A per contact, provides good
shielding characteristics in EMI-sensitive environments, features hot-plugging
capabilities and UL safety features.
Headers are available in 2-circuit, single-flanged and 3-circuit, dual-flanged
versions. Cable assemblies are available in 3-circuit, straight, shielded and
unshielded versions for high-voltage applications and are UL touch-safe.
Additionally, the 2-circuit cabled solutions include a straight, unshielded cable
assembly; a right-angled, right-entry and left-entry unshielded version, as well as
a left-entry shielded variant for space-saving connections to servers installed in
confined spaces.

FEATURES AND BENEFITS
• High-current density per inch
supports up to 80.0A per blade
(180.0A per inch)
• Redundant contact design handles
up to 600V and supports AC or DC
high-voltage applications with the
lowest feasible voltage drop and
I2R (irreversible dissipative power)
losses
• Small centerline spacing of
11.00mm reduces PCB footprint
compared to legacy power products
• Recessed terminals, First-Mate-
Last-Break (FMLB) allow hot-
swapping of power units and reduce
network downtime
• Gold or tin contact plating
provides flexibility to suit customer
applications; gold plating provides
low interface resistance
• UL and CSA certifications meet
all accredited agency safety
requirement and approvals
PCB Headers
• Locating pegs enable accurate
through-hole positioning of
connector on PCB
• Through-hole solder retention design
provides flexible manufacturing
options
• Insert-molded threaded nut provides
secure panel attachment
Cable Assemblies
• Crimp terminal accepts 10, 8 and
12/12 or 6 AWG wires; supports
heavier gauge wire with no terminal
back-out issues
• EMI shielding options (for shielded
versions) minimize cross-talk and
improve immunity to external noise
• Terminal Position Assurance (TPA)
option available secures cable from
accidental cable disconnection
• Mounting jackscrews improve cable
retention after mating to PCB
header
• Standard overmold provides strain
relief and wire management in
rugged environments
