26-Position High-Density D-Sub Receptacle Shell — Contacts Sold Separately
The TE Connectivity 5788816-1 is a 26-position receptacle housing from the AMPLIMITE HDP-22 series, designed as a high-density D-Sub shell for female crimp contacts. It uses the DA shell size (2) high-density layout, packing 26 circuits into three rows — a denser arrangement than a standard DA-15 layout, which fits more signals into the same panel cutout. This is the receptacle half (female contact cavity), free-hanging (in-line) with a cable-side 4-40 threaded flange for panel-mount or backshell attachment. The housing is black glass-filled nylon (PA), the shell is steel with tin plating for EMI shielding and corrosion resistance.
What Mates and What Fills It
The mating plug is the corresponding 26-position high-density D-Sub pin housing, same shell size DA, such as the TE 5788793-1 or similar AMPLIMITE HDP-22 male shell. The 4-40 threaded insert on the cable side accepts standard D-Sub jackscrews or a backshell kit for strain relief and cable clamping. The shell size DA high-density layout means the footprint matches the standard 26-pin HD D-sub panel cutout — no special bracket required.
