Backshell for 15-Position D-Sub — Shielded, 37.5° Exit
The TE Connectivity 1393738-2 is a two-piece plastic backshell designed for standard 15-position D-sub connectors, with a 37.5° cable exit angle that routes the cable bundle at a shallow angle from the connector axis — useful for tight enclosure layouts where a straight or 90° exit won't clear the panel or adjacent components. It also fits HD26-position D-sub shells (same shell size A), giving you a second application if you're working with high-density 26-position connectors. The shell is shielded (nickel over copper plating on the plastic body) to contain EMI from the cable braid, and it ships with the cable clamp and assembly hardware included — no separate hardware order needed.
What's in the Box — Hardware and Clamp Included
The 1393738-2 comes with the cable clamp and all assembly hardware pre-packed in the tray. The clamp secures the round cable jacket to the backshell, transferring strain off the D-sub solder buckets or IDC contacts. The hardware set typically includes the screws and washers to fasten the backshell halves together and to the D-sub connector. No separate hardware kit to source — one order code covers the full mechanical termination.
Sourcing — Quoted to Order
For a BOM line match, confirm the position count (15) and shell size (A) against your D-sub connector before committing.
