DB 25 F WITH HOOD (METAL)

Description

The DB25 Female with Metal Hood is a premium connectivity solution designed for custom cable assembly in environments where signal integrity and durability are non-negotiable. It consists of a Standard-Density DB25 Jack (Female), featuring two rows of high-retention sockets (13 pins and 12 pins), and a Die-Cast Metal Backshell (Hood). The connector utilizes solder-cup terminations, allowing for a robust and permanent electrical connection for shielded multi-conductor cables or discrete wire bundles.

This assembly is indispensable for applications subject to high electrical noise or physical abuse, such as industrial automation control panels, professional audio multi-core snakes, and high-speed serial data links. The zinc die-cast metal hood provides full 360-degree shielding, acting as a Faraday cage to protect sensitive data from electromagnetic and radio frequency interference. Additionally, the rugged housing and integrated strain relief system ensure that the cable remains securely attached even under significant tension or vibration, preventing signal dropouts and wire fatigue.

Key Technical Advantages

• Advanced EMI/RFI Protection: The metal housing provides a low-impedance path to ground, significantly reducing the impact of external interference on data signals.

• Ruggedized Construction: The die-cast zinc alloy backshell offers exceptional resistance to impact, crushing, and harsh environmental conditions compared to standard plastic hoods.

• High-Retention Contacts: Gold-flashed or gold-plated female sockets ensure consistent mating force and ultra-low contact resistance for stable long-term performance.

• Superior Strain Relief: Includes a multi-stage internal cable clamp that distributes mechanical stress across the cable jacket, protecting delicate internal solder joints.

• Industrial-Grade Reliability: Engineered for high-cycle mating and permanent installations in demanding commercial and manufacturing environments.

Key Features

• DB25 Female Interface: Two-row, 25-pin D-Sub configuration with precision-formed internal sockets.

• Zinc Die-Cast Metal Hood: Finished with a durable chrome or nickel plating for maximum corrosion resistance and professional appearance.

• Solder Cup Terminals: Concave termination points designed for easy tinning and high-strength wire attachment.

• Complete Hardware Kit: Includes long jackscrews, nuts, and cable clamps for a secure, locked connection to mating DB25 male interfaces.

• Standard-Density Design: Fully compatible with all industrial RS-232, parallel, and specialized analog/digital signaling ports.
