It carries 9 positions arranged in 2 rows, matching the standard DE-9 shell layout (shell size 1). The shell is steel with a tin finish (200 µin / 5.08 µm thickness) and features grounding indents that mate with the receptacle shell to bleed shield current before the signal pins engage, reducing EMI susceptibility in shielded cable assemblies. ## What the 4-40 Flange Means for Your Assembly The cable-side flange carries a 4-40 threaded insert — the standard UNC thread for DE-9 D-sub connectors. This accepts a mating jack-screw or screw-lock from the receptacle side, or a backshell with 4-40 standoffs. The flange is on the cable side, meaning the threaded hole faces the cable exit; the mating receptacle typically has a clearance hole for the screw. This arrangement is common for in-line cable assemblies where the plug is the free-hanging half. ## Grounding Indents and Shield Termination Grounding indents on the shell provide a metal-to-metal contact point between the plug and receptacle shells when mated. This establishes a low-impedance path for shield currents before the signal pins make contact, which is critical for maintaining shield continuity in EMI-sensitive applications. The tin-plated steel shell (200 µin / 5.08 µm) offers adequate corrosion resistance for indoor industrial and commercial environments.","metaTitle":"TE AMPLIMITE HDP-20 1658642-1 D-Sub Housing Plug, 9 Pos","metaDescription":"TE AMPLIMITE HDP-20 D-sub plug housing for male contacts, 9 positions, 2 rows, 4-40 threaded insert, grounding indents, RoHS3, active production.","metaKeywords":null},"attributes":{"series":"AMPLIMITE HDP-20","packageCase":null,"mountingType":null,"rohsStatus":"ROHS3 Compliant","productStatus":"Active","categoryPath":["D-Sub & D-Shaped Connectors"],"specifications":{"Mfr":"TE Connectivity AMP Connectors","Note":"Contacts Not Included","Color":"Black","Series":"AMPLIMITE HDP-20","Package":"Bulk","Features":"Grounding Indents","Contact Type":"Signal","Mating Cycles":"-","Mounting Type":"Free Hanging (In-Line)","Connector Type":"Plug for Male Contacts","Flange Feature":"Cable Side (4-40)","Number of Rows":"2","Product Status":"Active","Connector Style":"D-Sub","lifecycle_stage":"unknown","Ingress Protection":"-","Base Product Number":"1658642","Dielectric Material":"Thermoplastic","Number of Positions":"9","Operating Temperature":"-","Shell Finish Thickness":"200µin (5.08µm)","Shell Material, Finish":"Steel, Tin Plated","Shell Size, Connector Layout":"1 (DE, E)"}},"commercial":{"minOrderQty":null,"leadTime":null,"referencePrice":"$7.4300","priceTiers":[{"qty":1,"price":"$7.43000","currency":"USD"},{"qty":10,"price":"$6.47200","currency":"USD"},{"qty":25,"price":"$6.30120","currency":"USD"},{"qty":50,"price":"$6.13100","currency":"USD"},{"qty":100,"price":"$5.75620","currency":"USD"},{"qty":250,"price":"$5.72220","currency":"USD"},{"qty":500,"price":"$5.38158","currency":"USD"},{"qty":1000,"price":"$4.80255","currency":"USD"}]},"links":{"datasheetUrl":"https://cdn.icsourcedirect.com/87037fcf89123b0e7f593cbab9e7afcc.pdf","sourceUrl":null,"alternativesUrl":"https://icsourcedirect.com/api/mcp/products/1658642-1/alternatives.json"},"ai":{"faq":[{"question":"Does 1658642-1 include contacts?","answer":"No. The 1658642-1 is a housing only — contacts are not included.
