1478884-6

Overview

The TE Connectivity AMP Connectors part number 1478884-6 is a circular metric connector gland, specifically an EMC (Electromagnetic Compatibility) cable grip. It features a brass construction with a nickel-plated finish and utilizes an M40x1.5 thread specification. This component is designed to provide strain relief and environmental sealing for cables entering equipment enclosures while maintaining electromagnetic interference shielding integrity.

Feature Summary

• Provides effective electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) shielding for cable entry points
• Constructed from durable brass material with a protective nickel plating
• Designed as a metric cable grip compatible with M40x1.5 threading standards

Applications

• Industrial control panel cable entries requiring EMC protection
• Equipment enclosures needing strain relief for shielded cables
• Applications demanding robust metallic cable glands in harsh environments

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific thread size M40x1.5 matches your enclosure requirements. Confirm that the nickel-plated brass material meets your corrosion resistance needs. Ensure the cable diameter falls within the gland's specified clamping range for proper sealing and strain relief performance.

Selection Notes

Select this component when EMC shielding is critical for signal integrity or regulatory compliance. The M40 metric thread requires matching enclosure knockouts. Consider the nickel plating for general industrial environments where standard zinc plating may be insufficient.

Part Context

This part belongs to the METRIC EMC GLAND series by TE Connectivity AMP Connectors. It serves as a passive interconnect accessory rather than an active electrical component. Its primary function is mechanical retention and environmental sealing combined with RF shielding capabilities for cable assemblies.

Replacement Considerations

Public confirmed substitute part numbers are not available in the provided documentation. Verify compatibility with existing M40x1.5 threaded openings before considering alternative manufacturers.
