Eaton 85100AC2221SX50 Receptacle - MIL-DTL-26482

Feature → Business Impact → Application: The 21-contact arrangement delivers high power and signal density in a compact form, reducing panel area and hardware costs while improving reliability in vibration-prone environments. This translates to predictable performance in automated machinery and avionics, with fewer connectors to manage and easier diagnostics when issues arise. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Cadmium plating on an aluminium shell provides enhanced corrosion protection in challenging environments, lowering maintenance costs and extending service intervals for outdoor or coastal installations. Feature → Business Impact → Application: The 1/3 Bayonet coupling supports quick mating and secure retention, speeding assembly and reducing downtime during field wiring and servicing in manufacturing cells and on-aircraft ground equipment. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Solder Cup contacts on a socket (female) configuration ensure robust, corrosion-resistant terminations compatible with common harness practices, enabling repeatable performance across production lines and maintenance shops. Feature → Business Impact → Application: The square flange receptacle with a straight backshell option and a delivered-with-connector configuration simplifies mounting, improves sealing arrangements, and reduces the risk of misalignment during panel assembly in control panels and aircraft systems. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Operating temperature range from -40 °C to 125 °C supports mission-critical equipment in extreme environments, providing confidence for both aerospace and industrial automation deployments. Feature → Business Impact → Application: The 53 mm length and 40 mm width with a 40 mm height profile balance enclosure clearance against mounting constraints, enabling compatibility with compact equipment racks and ruggedized control panels while preserving useful cavity layout. Feature → Business Impact → Application: 21 cavities with 1/3 Bayonet layout aligns with Souriau 851-series ecosystems, assuring compatibility with existing connectors, backshell accessories, and field repair strategies in production facilities and field service programs.
