Product details

Free-hanging D-sub receptacle housing for signal harnesses

The TE Connectivity AMPLIMITE HDP-20 205203-3 is a 9-position D-sub receptacle housing for female signal contacts. It is a free-hanging (in-line) shell — no board-mounting footprint — designed for cable-to-panel or cable-to-cable harnesses. The housing carries two rows of signal contacts and uses the standard DE (E) shell size.

What contacts fit this housing

The 205203-3 accepts standard AMPLIMITE HDP-20 size 20 crimp contacts for 20-24 AWG wire. The female contacts are inserted from the rear and retained by a metal latch inside the shell; extraction requires a proper tool. For a complete mated pair, the matching male plug housing is the AMPLIMITE HDP-20 DE-9P style (same shell size, male contacts).

Build and finish details

The shell is steel with a tin-plated finish. The dielectric housing is black glass-filled nylon (PA).
