Product Overview
DSX connectors are available in various configurations to meet specific application needs, featuring polarization systems to prevent mismating and offered in different shell sizes and contact arrangements.

Technical Characteristics

Electrical: Contact sizes range from 22 to 12, with varying axial loads and current capacities.
Mechanical & Environmental: Operate within -65°C to +125°C, with a durability of 500 mating cycles, and resistance to vibration and shock.
Materials: Made from materials like aluminum alloy, copper alloy, and stainless steel, with various platings for corrosion resistance.

How to Order
Ordering involves specifying the military part number for connectors qualified to SAE AS81659, considering polarization codes and contact arrangements.

Applications
DSX connectors are used in avionics for interfacing equipment to racks, ensuring reliable connections in harsh environments, suitable for both environmental and non-environmental applications.

Contact Types
The series supports various contact types including signal, power, coaxial, twinax, triax, and fiber optic contacts, with options for crimp, wire wrap, or PC tail terminations.

Accessories and Dimensions
Accessories include sealing plugs, boots, and sleeves, with detailed dimensions and panel cutouts provided for proper installation.

Connector Specifications and Ordering Guide

Contact Delivery: Wire wrap contacts are pre-installed, while size 16 contacts for specific arrangements are delivered separately and require crimp termination.
