VRM-08-50-100-50-00-N

Overview

The VRM-08-50-100-50-00-N is a rectangular military specification connector from the AirBorn verSI series, manufactured by Molex / AirBorn. It functions as a plug with a metal body and vertical orientation. The component features a 0.050-inch (1.27 mm) pitch and utilizes press-fit termination for board mounting. This specific configuration includes 50 columns and 6 rows, providing 300 circuits. It incorporates fixed jacknuts designed for a maximum board thickness of 0.125 inches and includes an EMI gasket.

Feature Summary

• Military specification construction with metal body
• Press-fit termination for secure board mounting
• Integrated EMI gasket for signal integrity
• Fixed jacknut design for simplified installation

Applications

• Vertical PCB-mount applications requiring male interface
• Board stacking configurations
• High-density interconnect systems
• Military and aerospace electronic assemblies

Procurement Notes

Verify the exact revision of the official datasheet prior to design implementation, as specifications may be updated. Confirm that the fixed jacknut configuration aligns with the target board thickness constraints. Ensure compatibility with the corresponding receptacle components within the verSI series for proper mating. Cross-reference the MIL-DTL-83513 compliance requirements with system specifications.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a vertical, male interface with press-fit termination is required. The 1.27 mm pitch supports high-density layouts. The metal body provides structural rigidity and EMI shielding capabilities. Verify that the 300-circuit count meets the system's pinout requirements. Consider the fixed jacknut limitation regarding maximum board thickness during mechanical integration.

Part Context

This part belongs to the AirBorn verSI series, which offers various termination styles including press-fit and through-hole options. The series supports multiple row and column combinations to accommodate different circuit densities. The VRM designation indicates a plug configuration, distinguishing it from receptacles or other series variants like VSM or VRRAF.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes within the same series include variations in row/column counts or termination styles, such as VRM-06-50-100-50-00-NE or VRM-08-20-100-50-00-J. Ensure any replacement maintains the 1.27 mm pitch and vertical orientation. Verify that the contact plating and material specifications match the original design requirements.
