SLIDING RAIL POWER CONNECTIVITY FOR AUTOMOTIVE APPLICATIONS
TE Connectivity Sliding Power Connector can reduce the need for system downtime that when swapping server drawer components, thereby saving significant operational costs. The sliding power connector can minimize the need for a bulky cable management system within the drawer, opening up more space for airflow and reducing overall cooling costs.
The connector utilizes PCBs to transmit power directly to the on-board components, potentially eliminating the need for power cables. Increased airflow reduces cooling costs.
TE Connectivity’s (TE) sliding power connector 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 dependable. 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.
