Panel or Board-Edge D-Sub for Signal and Low-Power Duty
The 2-row arrangement with a 0.108-inch (2.74 mm) row-to-row pitch and 0.090-inch (2.29 mm) contact spacing fits the standard D-Sub footprint — no board layout surprises. The steel shell with tin plating provides basic EMI shielding, and the 4-40 threaded inserts on the flange lock the mating plug securely against vibration.
If your application sees frequent connector swaps or lives in a mildly corrosive environment (factory floor, telecom shelter), the gold thickness here is the right call. The 125 V rating covers most control and data-interface voltages; for higher-voltage bus work, you would step up to a high-voltage D-Sub variant.
The through-hole solder termination is the workhorse for PCB mounting: the contacts are soldered into plated through-holes, and the 4-40 flange screws or standoffs provide mechanical retention to the board or panel.
