MIL-DTL-26482 SI qualification is the core specification for this connector family, ensuring certified interoperability with compatible I/O systems. This reduces qualification cycles in program audits and minimizes the risk of non-conformance during integration. It is ideal for aerospace, defense, and rugged industrial equipment where formal qualification accelerates program timelines. The 26 contact positions enable high-density connections without expanding panel footprint, increasing signal and power capacity while reducing wiring complexity and weight. This directly translates to smaller panel real estate and lower harness costs in avionics and control rooms. A 1/3 bayonet coupling delivers fast, secure mating in tight spaces, lowering maintenance time and mis-mates during field service. Cadmium plating plus an aluminium shell provide corrosion resistance and strength-to-weight advantages for harsh environments. Backshell adaptor and straight orientation (W) support clean routing and straightforward installation, reducing cable clutter. The delivered-with-connector option streamlines procurement and minimizes downstream assembly steps, improving overall project timelines.

FAQs
Installation involves mating the square flange receptacle with its corresponding plug using the 1/3 bayonet coupling. Ensure proper alignment of the W-oriented backshell and secure the adaptor backshell to the panel. Terminate solder cup contacts per your harness spec, and verify container and enclosure sealing where applicable to maintain environmental protection.
The 85100A1626SW50 provides 26 contact positions in a socket (female) arrangement, designed for 26 cavities with solder cup terminations. This high-density layout supports complex signal and power distributions within a compact 41 mm length and 31.3 mm footprint.
Yes. The connector specification includes an operating temperature range from -40 °C to 125 °C, making it suitable for extreme ambient conditions commonly found in aerospace, defense, and rugged industrial applications.
The 85100A1626SW50 is MIL-DTL-26482 SI qualified and REACH compliant, with cadmium plating offering corrosion protection. This combination supports regulatory alignment for programs requiring formal interoperability and environmental safety compliance.
Aerospace avionic subsystems, defense equipment, and rugged industrial automation panels benefit from the 85100A1626SW50 due to its high-density 26-contact configuration, robust aluminium shell, and quick mating with a secure 1/3 bayonet coupling, which collectively reduce assembly time and lifecycle costs.
