DVI-D Dual Link Receptacle — 24 Contacts, Shielded, Right-Angle Panel Mount
The Molex 0743204000 is a DVI-D dual link receptacle from the MicroCross 74320 series, carrying 24 contacts in a shielded, right-angle panel-mount package. It is the full-size digital video interface connector, supporting the dual-link data rate through all 24 pins — the extra six contacts over a single-link DVI enable higher resolution and refresh rates on compatible displays. Rated at 3A per contact and 40VAC, with gold-plated contacts and a UL94 V-0 rated housing, it is built for reliable video signal transmission in desktop monitors, projectors, and commercial AV equipment.
The 24-contact count is the first check — it confirms this is a dual-link DVI-D, not a single-link (which uses only 18 pins). The 3A per contact rating is generous for a video connector; most DVI signal lines carry far less current, but the rating covers the +5V supply pin and any hot-plug detect circuits without derating.
