D-Sub Receptacle for Cable Harness Termination
The TE Connectivity AMPLIMITE HD-20 5-747905-2 is a 9-position D-Sub receptacle with female sockets, designed for free-hanging (in-line) cable harness termination via solder cups. It uses a standard DE (E) shell size — the 9-pin D-Sub footprint that mates with the matching DB-9 style plug.
Termination and Contact Design
Termination is through solder cups — one per contact position — allowing direct soldering of stripped wire without a crimp tool. The brass contacts carry a gold flash finish (contact finish thickness listed as Flash), which provides corrosion resistance for moderate mating cycle duty. The steel shell is tin-plated, and the unthreaded flange feature (housing/shell with unthreaded holes) means the receptacle mounts with a screw and nut rather than a threaded insert — typical for cable-mount D-Sub assemblies where the plug side carries the threaded hardware.
