11 December 2007

Tyco Electronics' range of die cast backshells includes an innovative design with two cable entries. Particularly suited to daisy chain applications, the backshells form part of the D-subminiature connector family and offer the ideal solution for industrial applications where a BUS style connection is required. To maintain screening integrity at the end of a connection run, or for applications requiring just one cable entry, a blanking plate is provided.

Rugged and durable, the backshells are available in a choice of two cable termination styles; a standard screw cable clamp, or for higher performance requirements, a full crimped termination between inner and outer ferrule using the appropriate application tooling.

Available in 9 to 37 position (shell sizes 1 to 4), the backshells allow use with a number of styles of cable mount D-subminiature connectors including high density variants, and are supplied complete with mounting screws for locking into the mating connector.
