Right-Angle DB-25 Plug with Board Retention
The TE Connectivity 3-338170-2 is a 25-position D-Sub plug from the AMPLIMITE HD-20 series, terminated through-hole and mounted right-angle to the PCB. The DB-25 shell size (3, DB, B) mates with the standard DB-25 receptacle, and the 0.406" (10.30 mm) backset spacing positions the connector face for panel-mount enclosures where the board sits parallel to the panel cutout. Gold-plated phosphor bronze contacts carry the signal path, rated 6 A per circuit at 125 V — sufficient for parallel data buses, RS-232/422 ports, and low-power I/O interfaces.
Mounting and Termination Detail
Through-hole solder termination with right-angle orientation — the pins exit the rear of the shell and bend 90° to insert into the PCB. The flange feature carries female screwlocks (4-40) on the mating side, accepting the male jackscrews on the mating receptacle to secure the pair against vibration. The glass-filled polyester dielectric (UL94 V-0) insulates the contacts and withstands the soldering temperatures.
