VRF-10-20-50-03-N

Overview

The VRF-10-20-50-03-N is a rectangular military specification receptacle from the AirBorn verSI series, manufactured by Molex. It features a 1.27 mm pitch and a metal body designed for vertical through-hole board mounting. The connector configuration includes 20 columns and 10 rows, providing a total of 200 positions with female socket contacts. It utilizes gold-plated terminals and fixed jacknuts suitable for maximum board thicknesses of 0.125 inches.

Feature Summary

• Compliant with MIL-DTL-83513 standards for rugged military applications
• Constructed with a durable metal housing for environmental protection
• Features fixed jacknuts for secure panel or board attachment

Applications

• Military avionics systems
• Ruggedized electronic enclosures
• Defense communication equipment

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific revision level and RoHS compliance status directly with Molex/AirBorn documentation before procurement. Confirm that the fixed jacknut design aligns with the target assembly's mechanical constraints. Ensure the ordering suffix matches the required contact plating and termination specifications exactly as defined in the official datasheet to avoid functional mismatches.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a high-density, shielded receptacle is required for vertical interconnects. The 1.27 mm pitch allows for significant circuit density within constrained spaces. Verify that the metal housing material provides adequate shielding for the specific electromagnetic interference environment of the application.

Part Context

This part belongs to the AirBorn verSI family of connectors, which are engineered for high-reliability performance in demanding environments. The series offers various configurations to meet stringent military and aerospace requirements, ensuring consistent signal integrity and mechanical stability across diverse operational conditions.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes must match the MIL-DTL-83513 standard, 1.27 mm pitch, and 200-position layout. Cross-reference with other manufacturers producing equivalent rectangular MIL-spec receptacles only if they guarantee identical pinout and mechanical dimensions.
