CIM_PhysicalConnector¶
Class reference¶
Subclass of CIM_PhysicalElement
The PhysicalConnector class represents any PhysicalElement that is used to connect to other Elements. Any object that can be used to connect and transmit signals or power between two or more PhysicalElements is a descendant (or member) of this class. For example, Slots and D-shell connectors are types of PhysicalConnectors.
Key properties¶
Local properties¶
string[] OtherElectricalCharacteristics
A string describing the connector’s electrical characteristics - used when the ConnectorElectricalCharacteristics property contains an entry of 1 (Other). OtherElectricalCharacteristics should be set to NULL when ConnectorElectricalCharacteristics does not contain an value of 1.
uint16 ConnectorGender
Describes the gender of the connector.
ValueMap Values 0 Unknown 2 Male 3 Female
string ConnectorDescription
A string describing the Connector - used when the ConnectorLayout property is set to 1 (“Other”). Connector Description should be set to NULL when ConnectorLayout is any value other than 1.
uint16 ConnectorLayout
Describes the type of packaging normally associated with this type of connector.16 (PCI) - describes the generic PCI connector layout. 17 (PCI-X) - describes the PCI Extended connector layout. 18 (PCI-E) - describes the PCI Express connector layout, where the actual layout as far as the length is concerned is unknown. 19 - 25 (PCI-E xN) - describes the PCI Express connector layout, where N is the lane count that appropriately descirbes the length of the PCI-E connector.

uint16[] ConnectorElectricalCharacteristics
Describes the electrical characteristic for this connector.

uint16[] ConnectorType
An array of integers defining the type of PhysicalConnector. An array is specified to allow the description of ‘combinations’ of Connector information. For example, one array entry could specify RS-232 (value=25), another DB-25 (value=23) and a third entry define the Connector as “Male” (value=2).
This single property is being deprecated in lieu of using separate properties to describe the various aspects of the connector. The separation allows for a more generic means of describing the connectors. Obsolete connectors were intentionally removed from the new list.
