VRM-05-40-100-50-04-L1

Overview

The VRM-05-40-100-50-04-L1 is a rectangular MIL-DTL-83513 plug manufactured by AirBorn, a Molex company. It features a 0.050-inch (1.27mm) pitch with 5 rows and 40 columns, totaling 200 positions. The connector utilizes gold-plated beryllium copper male pins for through-hole board mount termination. It operates within a temperature range of -55°C to +125°C, rated for 200VAC and 2A current.

Feature Summary

• Compliant with MIL-DTL-83513 military specifications for high reliability
• Utilizes a robust aluminum alloy metal body for shielding and durability
• Features gold-plated contacts to ensure consistent signal integrity
• Designed for secure board-to-board or cable-to-board interconnections

Applications

• Military avionics systems requiring rugged interconnects
• High-density electronic equipment in defense applications
• Radar and communication subsystems
• Test and measurement instrumentation

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'L1' against official AirBorn documentation to confirm exact plating thickness, tail length, or jacknut configuration. Ensure compatibility with mating receptacles from the same verSI series. Confirm RoHS compliance status if required for your specific project regulations before finalizing procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a 200-position, 5-row male connector is required for MIL-DTL-83513 applications. Ensure the PCB layout supports the 0.050-inch pitch and through-hole termination. Verify that the mating environment accommodates the vertical mounting style and board spacing requirements specified in the datasheet.

Part Context

This part belongs to the AirBorn verSI series, known for high-density interconnect solutions. The series offers various row counts and termination styles to meet diverse military and aerospace needs. The VRM designation indicates a plug configuration with male pins, distinguishing it from receptacle variants.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes must match the MIL-DTL-83513 standard, 200 positions, 5 rows, and 0.050-inch pitch. Verify pin count, contact type, and mounting style compatibility. Cross-reference with other manufacturers offering equivalent MIL-spec connectors only if form, fit, and function are confirmed identical.
