VRRAF-04-50-50-06-N

Overview

The VRRAF-04-50-50-06-N is a rectangular MIL-Spec connector from the AirBorn verSI series, manufactured by Molex. It features a female receptacle configuration with 200 positions arranged in 4 rows and 50 columns. The component utilizes a metal body and vertical through-hole termination style for board mounting. Contact plating consists of gold over nickel to ensure reliable signal transmission. The design adheres to MIL-DTL-83513 standards, providing robust interconnection capabilities for demanding environments.

Feature Summary

• Military-grade construction compliant with MIL-DTL-83513 specifications
• High-density 200-position layout within a compact rectangular form factor
• Gold-plated contacts housed in a durable metal shell for environmental protection

Applications

• Aerospace avionics systems requiring high reliability
• Military communication equipment interfaces
• Ruggedized data processing units

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix codes against the official manufacturer datasheet to confirm exact mechanical dimensions and termination details. Ensure compatibility with mating plugs regarding row and column counts. Confirm that the metal body material meets project environmental requirements. Cross-reference the part number with current Molex/AirBorn documentation to validate active status and lead times before finalizing procurement plans.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a high-density, military-specification receptacle is required for board-mounted applications. The 0.050-inch pitch allows for significant I/O density within constrained spaces. Ensure the mating counterpart matches the 4-row, 50-column configuration. Verify that the through-hole mounting style aligns with the PCB design constraints and that the metal housing provides necessary shielding or structural support for the assembly.

Part Context

This part belongs to the AirBorn verSI series, known for high-performance interconnect solutions. The series offers various configurations including plugs and receptacles with different termination styles. The VRRAF variant specifically denotes a right-angle or specific mounting orientation within the family, designed for robust connectivity in critical infrastructure and defense sectors where standard commercial connectors may not suffice.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes must match the 200-position count, 4x50 grid, and MIL-DTL-83513 compliance. Verify identical pinout and mechanical footprint before substitution. Generic rectangular connectors are not suitable replacements due to the specific military qualification and contact density requirements of this series.
