Eaton 85100A2461SW50 Receptacle - MIL-DTL-26482 SI Qualified
Part Number: 85100A2461SW50
Quick Summary
Eaton 85100A2461SW50 Receptacle provides rugged MIL-DTL-26482 connectivity for aerospace and defense applications. Engineers often contend with mismatched backshells, inconsistent plating, and environmental ratings that stall programs. MIL-DTL-26482 SI qualification and REACH compliance anchor reliability, while an aluminium shell with cadmium plating delivers corrosion resistance in demanding conditions. With 61 contacts and a square flange, 1/3 bayonet coupling, and a W-oriented straight backshell, this receptacle supports high-density, field-serviceable assemblies. For procurement teams, the delivered-with connector option simplifies installation and reduces assembly risk. This combination translates to lower lifecycle costs, faster time-to-value, and greater uptime in critical equipment.

FAQs
The 85100A2461SW50 uses a 1/3 bayonet coupling with a square flange receptacle and a W orientation backshell, delivering secure, vibration-resistant mating. It ships delivered with connector and employs solder cup contacts, simplifying integration with standard MIL-DTL-26482 assemblies and panel cutouts sized for shell size 24.
Operating temperature ranges from -40 °C to 125 °C, supporting extreme aerospace and industrial applications. With aluminium shell and cadmium plating, the connector provides corrosion resistance and weight efficiency, while 61 contact positions enable dense interconnects suitable for high-channel applications.
Yes. The MIL-DTL-26482 SI qualified 85100A2461SW50 is designed for aerospace and defense use, with a square flange receptacle, 61 contacts, and robust environmental performance. It is also well-suited for rugged industrial equipment that demands high-density connections, repeatable mating, and long service life.
The connector is MIL-DTL-26482 SI qualified and REACH compliant, aligning with stringent defense and environmental standards. The cadmium plating and aluminium shell meet environmental and corrosion resistance requirements typical for high-reliability programs, while the format supports compliance with standard MIL connectors and platform interfaces.
Field-serviceable design, protected by a reliable 1/3 bayonet coupling and solder cup contacts, reduces downtime during swaps and repairs. The combination of low weight, corrosion resistance, and high-contact density lowers lifecycle costs, extends intervals between maintenance, and supports faster time-to-value for retrofit and upgrade initiatives.
