Shorting Socket: BTB

The 9159 series of Board-to-Board interconnect system allows two
PCB's to be mated end-to-end creating strips of LED lighting. Designed
specifically for the unique Solid State Lighting (SSL) market requiring
coplanar (horizontal-to-horizontal) PCB mating with a 5 Amp current
rating in the smallest package available. The 2 position shorting socket
was designed to plug onto the last PCB in the lighting strip to short the
two contacts together, closing the electrical loop. Just as the cabled plug
brings power and signals onto the light strip, the shorting socket
completes the circuit while maintaining a single board design.
