Feature → Business Impact → Application: 27 contacts in a single 27-position receptacle enables high-density signal and power transmission, reducing harness complexity and mounting space while improving reliability in aerospace and defense subsystems. This compact aluminium shell keeps weight in check for airframes and rugged equipment, while the cadmium plating provides corrosion resistance in aggressive environments, lowering maintenance needs and lifecycle costs. The straight backshell adaptor and Z-oriented connector orientation simplify installation and mating alignment, leading to faster assembly on production lines and easier field servicing in aircraft, rail, or industrial automation panels. The 1/3 bayonet coupling delivers secure, vibration-resistant connections for missions with high shock and vibration profiles, improving uptime in critical systems. Operating from -40 °C to 125 °C, the connector maintains electrical integrity across extreme temperatures, supporting equipment in harsh climates and demanding environments where reliability matters most. Delivered with connector capability and a reusable square flange receptacle footprint, it aligns with standard Eaton Souriau 851 series assemblies, ensuring compatibility across existing harnesses and inventory. In practice, this translates to lower part-count, faster repairs, and measurable energy efficiency gains thanks to robust contact performance and reduced resistance over time.

FAQs
Begin by aligning the Z-oriented receptacle with the mating plug, ensuring the square flange aligns with bolt holes for a secure, vibration-resistant mount. Use the 1/3 bayonet coupling to engage the connector, then thread and tighten the mounting hardware. The included adaptor backshell simplifies routing and protects solder cups during assembly. Verify contact seating before powering to ensure signal integrity.
This receptacle supports 27 contacts in a compact 27-position layout, with solder cup contact delivery. It uses an aluminium shell sized for a 20 shell diameter, cadmium plating, and operates from -40 °C to 125 °C. The backshell is straight, and the connector orientation is Z, with a 1/3 bayonet coupling for secure mating.
