50-Position High-Density D-Type for Board-Edge Signal Interconnects
The TE Connectivity 5787083-5 is a 50-position, 2-row D-Type receptacle from the AMPLIMITE.050 III series, designed for board-edge mounting in dense digital signal applications. It uses a 0.050-inch pitch with 0.100-inch row-to-row spacing — the standard layout for this shell size, which packs 50 signal contacts into a footprint roughly the length of a DB-25 shell.
Board Locks and Shielded Shell for Vibration Resistance
The flange feature includes 2-56 threaded inserts and latchblocks for secure mating with the corresponding plug's jackscrews or slide locks — the latchblocks reduce the risk of back-out under vibration compared to a plain threaded insert alone.
Right-Angle Solder Termination for Board-Edge Placement
The backset spacing of 0.146 inches (3.71 mm) sets the distance from the board edge to the front of the shell, which determines how far the connector overhangs the board edge. This dimension matters for enclosure cutout alignment and for ensuring the mating plug's cable strain relief clears adjacent components.
