VRF-10-20-50-00-L

Overview

The AirBorn VRF-10-20-50-00-L is a rectangular military specification receptacle from the Versi series. It features a metal body with vertical press-fit termination and fixed jacknuts for board thicknesses between 0.125 and 0.250 inches. The connector provides 200 circuits arranged in 10 rows and 20 columns, utilizing a 0.050-inch (1.27mm) pitch. Contacts are female sockets with gold plating on phosphor bronze bases.

Feature Summary

• Mil-Dtl-83513 compliant construction
• Vertical press-fit termination
• Gold-plated contacts

Applications

• Military avionics systems
• Radar equipment
• Electronic warfare platforms

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'L' against official AirBorn documentation to confirm if it denotes a unique environmental rating or accessory configuration distinct from the standard VRF-10-20-50-00 variant. Ensure the supplier provides traceability certificates confirming compliance with MIL-DTL-83513 standards.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a high-density, ruggedized interconnect is required for vertical board mounting. The fixed jacknut design simplifies assembly for standard panel thicknesses. Verify that the 0.050-inch pitch aligns with the mating header requirements and that the press-fit termination method is compatible with the target PCB manufacturing capabilities.

Part Context

This part belongs to the AirBorn Versi family of connectors, which are designed for demanding environments. The Versi series is characterized by its small form factor and high contact density, making it suitable for space-constrained applications in defense and aerospace sectors where reliability is critical.

Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements must match the Mil-Dtl-83513 specifications, 200-position count, and 0.050-inch pitch. Cross-referencing with other manufacturers requires verifying identical mechanical dimensions and electrical performance characteristics.

FAQ

What is the maximum board thickness supported by the fixed jacknuts?

The fixed jacknuts support a board thickness range of 0.125 to 0.250 inches.

Is this connector RoHS compliant?

Standard versions may not be RoHS compliant; verify the specific 'L' suffix designation in the official datasheet for environmental compliance details.
