These RoHS-compliant connectors are offered in shell sizes 9 to 25.
Standard shell styles include wall mount receptacle, jam nut receptacle and straight plug.
Key design features include a positive shell-to-shell coupling design, grounding fingers and electroless nickel plating to provide superior EMI shielding capability.
Acme threads ensure coupling durability and blunting of the thread on both the coupling nut and receptacle eliminates cross-coupling.
The connector quickly mates and self locks with only a 360-degree turn of the coupling nut.
An antivibration mechanism prevents the connector from backing off.
The interfacial seal and rear grommet ensure complete environmental sealing to prevent any electrolytic erosion.
