To support the requirements of worldwide OEMs, two connector types for FlexRay are used on evaluation boards:
• One male DB9 for both FlexRay channels
• Two Molex (Mini Fit Jr.™) headers, one for each FlexRay channel
However, there are various connectors used for production hardware.
and
below show example pin outs
for both connector types. The DB9 connector allows for 2 channels on a single connector. The dual channels allows for a
redundant wiring for increased reliability. The dual channel capability is built into the FlexRay standard.
