D-Sub Receptacle for Panel and Board Mount
The 4-40 threaded flange lets you bolt the receptacle to a panel or bracket for vibration-resistant mounting — the screw-down interface keeps the mated pair from working loose in a cabinet with fans or relays.
Mating and Termination Check
This is a receptacle (female sockets) — it mates with any standard DA-15 (DE-15) D-sub plug having the same shell size and 4-40 threaded insert spacing. The through-hole solder tails are intended for PCB mounting; the 0.318-inch row spacing and 0.090-inch contact spacing match the standard D-sub footprint used across the AMPLIMITE HD-20 family. The gold flash provides corrosion protection for the contact interface but does not support the hundreds of mating cycles that thicker gold would. For a connector that stays mated on a backplane or inside an enclosure, flash is adequate; for a cable that gets disconnected weekly, budget for contact wear.
