15-Position High-Density D-Sub for Right-Angle Board Mount
The TE Connectivity AMPLIMITE HD-22 2311763-3 is a 15-position, high-density D-Sub receptacle with female sockets, arranged in 3 rows. It terminates via through-hole solder tails in a right-angle orientation, designed to sit flush against the PCB edge. The 0.350" (8.89 mm) backset spacing sets the offset between the PCB and the panel cutout — a dimension you need to confirm against your enclosure's standoff height before the board layout is locked. Rated 3 A per contact, this is a signal-density interconnect, not a power rail connector; the high-density layout packs 15 circuits into a shell size that normally carries 9 positions in a standard D-Sub, so the pin-to-pin clearance is tighter. The steel shell is nickel-plated for EMI shielding continuity when mated with the cable-side plug.
Board Lock and Right-Angle Termination for Vibration Resistance
Right-angle D-Sub connectors carry the cable bundle parallel to the board, which puts leverage on the solder tails. The board locks on this 2311763-3 anchor the connector body to the PCB through the mounting holes, transferring cable strain to the board rather than the solder joints.
Mating and Shell Compatibility
This receptacle mates with a standard AMPLIMITE HD-22 high-density D-Sub plug (male pin connector) of the same shell size — shell layout 1 (DE, E) High Density. The flange features 4-40 threaded inserts for the mating jack-screws, which are the standard thread for D-Sub shell size DE. The 4-40 thread size is confirmed by the housing/shell flange feature specification. No pinout diagram is carried in the available data; the standard high-density DE-15 pinout (3 rows of 5) applies for this shell size and position count.
