In electronic components, the parameter "Shape" refers to the physical form or outline of the component. It describes the external appearance of the component, including its dimensions, size, and overall structure. The shape of an electronic component can vary widely depending on its function and design requirements. Common shapes include rectangular, cylindrical, square, and circular, among others. The shape of a component is an important consideration in the design and layout of electronic circuits, as it can impact factors such as space utilization, heat dissipation, and ease of assembly.

In electronic components, the "Series" refers to a group of products that share similar characteristics, designs, or functionalities, often produced by the same manufacturer. These components within a series typically have common specifications but may vary in terms of voltage, power, or packaging to meet different application needs. The series name helps identify and differentiate between various product lines within a manufacturer's catalog.

Terminal type or emulation specifies how your computer and the host computer to which you are connected exchange information.

a group of products which fulfill a similar need for a market segment or market as a whole.

Depth Behind Panel is a parameter that refers to the distance between the back of an electronic component and the surface of the panel it is mounted on. This measurement is important for ensuring that the component fits properly within the device or system it is being installed in. It helps determine how much space is needed behind the panel to accommodate the component and any necessary connections or wiring. Manufacturers provide this specification to assist designers and engineers in planning and designing the layout of electronic components within a system.

a particular group of related products.

In electronic components, the parameter "Contacts" refers to the physical points of connection on a device where electrical signals are transmitted or received. Contacts are typically metal components that come into direct contact with other conductive materials to establish an electrical connection. The quality of contacts, including their material, design, and cleanliness, can significantly impact the performance and reliability of the electronic component. Proper maintenance and care of contacts are essential to ensure optimal electrical conductivity and prevent issues such as signal loss, interference, or malfunction.

IP (or "Ingress Protection") ratings are defined in international standard EN 6529 (British BS EN 6529:1992, European IEC 659:1989). They are?used to define levels of sealing effectiveness of electrical enclosures against intrusion from foreign bodies?(tools, dirt etc) and moisture.
