Procurement Notes

Verify the specific insertion arrangement code matches the design requirements. Confirm that the crimp tooling aligns with the contact specifications. Ensure environmental sealing needs are met by the mating connector assembly. Check for any updated revision levels or obsolescence notices from the manufacturer before finalizing procurement orders.

Selection Notes

Select this model when a 21-position cable-mounted plug is required under MIL-DTL-26482 standards. Ensure the mating receptacle shares the same shell size and insertion arrangement. Verify that the operating environment temperature range is compatible with the connector materials. Confirm that the bayonet coupling style fits the available panel or cable space constraints.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Amphenol MIL-DTL-26482 Series II family of circular connectors. These connectors are engineered for high-performance applications requiring small size and light weight. The series supports various mounting styles and contact arrangements to meet diverse aerospace and defense interconnect needs.

Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes include other manufacturers producing MIL-DTL-26482 Series II plugs with identical shell size 22 and 21-pin configurations. Cross-reference insertion arrangements carefully to ensure pin-to-pin compatibility. Verify that mating connectors share the same bayonet coupling interface.
