CHAMP 24-Position Backshell — 180° Exit, Strain Relief Included
The TE Connectivity 2-552076-1 is a two-piece backshell from the CHAMP series, designed for 24-position connectors. It provides a 180° cable exit for round cable, with an integrated strain relief to protect the termination point from pull and flex. The housing is molded from black polyphenylene (PPE), a plastic that holds up in industrial environments without adding weight.
What It Fits and How It Routes
This backshell is compatible with standard CHAMP 24-position connectors — the same footprint used across TE's CHAMP line for D-subminiature-style I/O. The 180° cable exit routes the round cable straight out the back, which keeps the assembly profile low in panel-mount or enclosure applications. The included strain relief hardware clamps onto the cable jacket, not the individual conductors, so the crimp or IDC termination inside the connector isn't carrying the mechanical load.
