The MDX is a high reliability D-Subminiature connector with
size 20 fixed contacts and is available with 9, 15, 25, 37, and 50 contacts.
The MDX series utilizes the unique new PosiBand contact
system. The PosiBand is a closed entry female contact system that provides
lower average insertion force during mating, enhanced reliability, and
increased electrical performance over legacy designs.
MDX connectors use solid machined contacts. These connectors
meet the performance requirements of IEC 60807-2, performance level one.
Contact resistance is a low 0.005 ohms. Single contact current ratings are as
high as 14 amperes, remarkable for D-Subminiature connectors. MDX series insulators
are manufactured with glass-filled polyester, which offers stable performance
in harsh environments.
Termination options include straight and right angle PCB
solder, wire solder, and press-in terminations. A wide variety of accessories
is also available.
