Eaton 85100A1626SX50 Receptacle - MIL-DTL-26482 SI

MIL-DTL-26482 SI qualification provides a proven interconnect standard, delivering predictable performance in safety-critical environments and reducing qualification costs for aerospace and defense programs. This leads to lower risk during system integration and faster time-to-deploy in high-reliability assemblies. The 26-position configuration supports dense signal and power distribution within a compact 41 mm depth, cutting wiring harness complexity and saving panel space in control rooms and avionics bays. The solder cup contacts and socket gender offer robust, vibration-resistant terminations that tolerate harsh vibration profiles common in automotive and industrial environments, improving uptime and reducing maintenance events. The aluminium shell keeps weight down for airborne and mobile equipment, while cadmium plating enhances wear resistance and contact durability in challenging field conditions. The straight backshell adaptor and 1/3 bayonet coupling optimize install times, enabling quick field retrofit and easier conformity to existing connector ecosystems. Delivered with connector and an X orientation, this receptacle is ready for ready-to-install panels, minimizing assembly steps and integration risk in critical systems. Overall, the combination of high-density 26-contact layout, environmental compliance like REACH, and rugged mechanical design translates to lower total cost of ownership through fewer spare parts and longer lifecycle performance.
