VSM-05-20-080-50-04-N1

Overview

The VSM-05-20-080-50-04-N1 is a rectangular MIL-DTL-83513 connector from the AirBorn verSI series. It features a 1.27 mm pitch with 5 rows and 20 columns, providing 100 positions. The plug utilizes gold-plated phosphor bronze contacts terminated via plated through-hole (PTH) with a 0.140" tail length. Designed for vertical board mounting, it includes locking jacknuts and operates within a temperature range of -55°C to +125°C.

Feature Summary

• Vertical male interface designed for high-density PCB stacking applications
• MIL-DTL-83513 compliant construction ensuring rugged environmental performance
• Gold contact plating provides reliable signal integrity in demanding conditions

Applications

• Military avionics systems requiring verified signal integrity
• Ruggedized telecommunications infrastructure equipment
• High-reliability aerospace electronic assemblies

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific termination tail length and locking hardware configuration against the design requirements before ordering. Confirm that the selected variant matches the required board spacing and row/column count. Ensure compliance with the applicable MIL-DTL-83513 revision level specified by the system engineering documentation to guarantee mechanical and electrical compatibility.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a vertical male connector with a 1.27 mm pitch is required for rigid board-to-board connections. Consider the 100-position capacity and PTH termination style for standard manufacturing processes. Evaluate the need for locking jacknuts to secure the connection against vibration in mobile or harsh environments.

Part Context

This part belongs to the AirBorn verSI family of rectangular connectors, which are engineered for high-speed digital and analog signal transmission. The series supports various termination options and row configurations to accommodate diverse density requirements while maintaining strict adherence to military specification standards for durability.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes must match the 1.27 mm pitch, 5x20 configuration, and MIL-DTL-83513 compliance. Verify equivalent locking mechanisms and termination styles to ensure interchangeability without modifying the host board layout.
