VRF-08-50-50-00-L

Overview

The VRF-08-50-50-00-L is a rectangular MIL-Spec connector from the AirBorn verSI series, manufactured by Molex. It features a 0.050-inch (1.27mm) pitch and an aluminum alloy metal body. This receptacle provides 400 positions arranged in 8 rows and 50 columns. It utilizes vertical press-fit termination for board mounting and includes fixed jacknuts designed for a maximum board thickness of 0.125 inches.

Feature Summary

• Compliant with MIL-DTL-83513 military specifications
• Constructed with a durable aluminum alloy housing
• Equipped with EMI shielding gaskets for signal integrity

Applications

• High-density electronic interconnects
• Military and aerospace systems
• Board-to-board connections

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'L' against official datasheets to confirm it denotes fixed jacknuts rather than turning jackscrews. Ensure the required board thickness does not exceed the 0.125-inch limit specified for this configuration. Confirm availability through authorized distributors as supply status varies.

Selection Notes

Select this component when high pin counts are required within a compact footprint. The press-fit termination offers robust mechanical retention without soldering. Verify that the system environment supports the operating temperature range and that the EMI shielding requirements align with the integrated gasket design.

Part Context

This part belongs to the AirBorn verSI series, which specializes in high-reliability rectangular connectors. The series is widely used in demanding applications requiring compliance with strict military standards. The model number indicates the row count, column count, pitch, and termination style.

Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes include other MIL-DTL-83513 compliant receptacles with matching 0.050-inch pitch and 400-position configurations. Verify mechanical dimensions and electrical ratings before substitution.
