• Military-grade construction compliant with MIL-DTL-83513 specifications
• High-density configuration utilizing liquid crystal polymer insulation and gold-plated phosphor bronze contacts

Applications

• Vertical printed circuit board stacking systems
• High-density military and aerospace interconnects
• Signal integrity critical electronic assemblies

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'L' against official AirBorn documentation to confirm contact plating thickness or material variations, as standard suffixes may differ. Confirm RoHS compliance status directly with the manufacturer. Ensure the ordering code matches the exact row, column, and spacing requirements for your design. Request the latest datasheet revision prior to finalizing procurement to avoid obsolete specifications.

Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring a vertical male interface with a 1.27 mm pitch. The 5x50 configuration provides 250 circuits suitable for dense routing. Verify that the through-hole termination style aligns with your PCB fabrication capabilities. Ensure the operating environment stays within the specified -55°C to +125°C range and does not exceed the 2 A current rating per contact.

Part Context

This part belongs to the AirBorn verSI series, which offers rectangular connectors in various configurations. The VSM designation indicates a vertical male plug. The series supports multiple termination styles including press-fit and plated thru-hole, allowing flexibility in assembly methods while maintaining consistent mechanical and electrical performance across the product line.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes must match the 1.27 mm pitch, 5-row by 50-column layout, and vertical male orientation. Verify compatibility with MIL-DTL-83513 standards if military qualification is required. Cross-reference terminal dimensions and board spacing to ensure mechanical fit without modification.
