VRF-08-10-50-00-L

Overview

The AirBorn VRF-08-10-50-00-L is a rectangular military specification receptacle from the Versi series. It features a metal body with vertical press-fit termination and fixed jacknuts designed for board thicknesses up to 0.125 inches. The connector provides 80 circuits arranged in 10 rows and 8 columns, utilizing a 0.050-inch (1.27mm) contact pitch. Contacts are gold-plated sockets compliant with MIL-DTL-83513 standards.

Feature Summary

• Vertical press-fit termination with fixed jacknuts for secure board mounting
• Gold-plated female contacts ensuring reliable signal transmission
• Metal housing construction providing structural integrity and EMI shielding

Applications

• Military avionics systems
• Ruggedized datacom equipment
• Telecommunications infrastructure

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'L' against the manufacturer datasheet to confirm locking mechanism or environmental rating variations. Ensure compatibility with mating male connectors regarding pin count and row/column configuration. Confirm that the fixed jacknut design accommodates the target PCB thickness constraints specified in the official documentation.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a high-density, ruggedized interconnect solution is required for vertical board mounting. The 0.050-inch pitch allows for significant circuit density within a compact footprint. Verify that the press-fit termination method aligns with the assembly process capabilities and that the metal housing meets thermal or shielding requirements of the application environment.

Part Context

This part belongs to the AirBorn Versi series, which offers rectangular connectors designed for harsh environments. The series supports various termination styles and contact arrangements, catering to demanding aerospace and defense applications requiring high reliability and durability under extreme conditions.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes must match the 8x10 contact arrangement, 0.050-inch pitch, and vertical press-fit termination. Verify equivalent MIL-DTL-83513 compliance and physical dimensions to ensure interchangeability without mechanical modification.
