TE Connectivity — Sliding Power Connector

TE Connectivity’s (TE) sliding power connector is one of the only connectors of it’s 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.

The sliding power connector also shows improved voltage drop over cables due to a more direct path from the power source to the server. With limited cabled connections, the sliding power connector is also more reliable. With no need for complex cable management or loose moving parts within the drawer, the sliding power connector provides a simpler design that is less prone to disconnection from the power source.
