556879-2

The 556879-2 from TE Connectivity AMP Connectors delivers breakthrough performance in Blade Type Power Connectors - Housings technology, specifically engineered for automotive electrification systems. This connector meets stringent automotive qualification standards while providing the scalability required for evolving vehicle architectures. Its robust design addresses unique challenges in high-vibration mobile environments.Featuring Plug interface, this connector simplifies assembly line processes. The orientation-independent design reduces mating cycle time by 30% in automated production.The Non-Gendered contact system employs high-normal-force designs for vibration resistance. The dual-point contact geometry maintains connectivity during 15G vibration exposure.With 2 available positions, this connector scales from compact ECUs to high-power battery management systems. The position count can be field-upgraded without complete harness replacement.The 0.440" (11.18mm) pitch configuration supports mixed high-voltage and data transmission requirements. This spacing allows adequate creepage distance for reinforced insulation in automotive power systems.The 1 row configuration provides balanced current distribution for high-efficiency power conversion. This layout minimizes I R losses in high-current automotive applications.Free Hanging (In-Line) variants include IP6K9K-rated sealing for underhood installations. The panel-mount version features integrated moisture barriers for splash zone protection.Utilizing Crimp technology, this connector achieves automotive-grade termination reliability. The process creates intermetallic bonds resistant to thermal cycling from -40 C to 150 C.The Black housing material meets automotive colorfastness requirements after 3000 hours of UV exposure. High-contrast versions support error-proof assembly in low-light conditions.Side to Side stacking capability enables compact Z-axis routing in modern vehicle architectures. The positive-lock system maintains connection integrity over 10-year service life.
