Release time:
2023-08-18
The male and female ends of the connector can be distinguished by the following aspects:
1. Appearance shape. Generally, the male and female ends of the connector have different shapes. Typically, the male connector's housing may be larger and have protruding or raised parts, while the female connector's housing may be smaller and have corresponding grooves or holes.
2. Ports and pins: Male connectors usually have ports (pinholes) to receive the pins in the female connector. The female connector typically has pins (inserts) that are inserted into the ports of the male connector.
3. Locking mechanism: Some connectors have special locking mechanisms to ensure a secure connection. These locking mechanisms may vary slightly between the male and female ends. For example, the male connector may have a rotating lock or a push-type lock, while the female connector may require rotation or pressing to insert or remove.
4. Markings: Some connectors may be marked with identifiers for the male and female ends, such as 'M' for male and 'F' for female. These markings can help users quickly identify the male and female ends of the connector.
