VSM-06-20-100-50-04-L1

Overview

The AirBorn VSM-06-20-100-50-04-L1 is a rectangular MIL-DTL-83513 connector from the verSI series. It features a vertical male plug configuration with 6 rows and 20 columns, providing 120 positions. The component utilizes a 1.27 mm (0.050 inch) pitch and gold plating on phosphor bronze contacts. Termination is achieved via through-hole mounting with a 0.140-inch tail length. The housing is constructed from liquid crystal polymer, supporting operation between -55°C and +125°C at 200V.

Feature Summary

• Compliant with MIL-DTL-83513 military specifications for high-reliability applications
• Vertical male plug design facilitates board-to-board stacking connections
• Gold-plated phosphor bronze contacts ensure stable signal integrity
• Liquid crystal polymer insulation provides thermal stability

Applications

• Military avionics systems requiring rugged interconnects
• High-density electronic equipment interfaces
• Board-to-board stacking in constrained spaces
• Radar and communication subsystems

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix L1 against official Molex/AirBorn documentation to confirm its exact functional definition, as non-standard suffixes may indicate unique packaging or handling requirements not covered by standard datasheets. Confirm RoHS compliance status directly with the manufacturer prior to procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this model when a 120-position vertical male connector is required. Ensure the PCB stack-up accommodates the 0.140-inch termination tail length. Verify that the 1.27mm pitch aligns with the mating receptacle dimensions and that the operating temperature range meets system environmental constraints.

Part Context

This part belongs to the AirBorn verSI family of high-density connectors. These components are engineered for demanding environments where space efficiency and reliable electrical performance are critical. The series supports various termination styles including press-fit and surface mount options alongside through-hole variants.

Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with other MIL-DTL-83513 compliant manufacturers such as Glenair or ITT Cannon for equivalent form-factor replacements. Ensure mating interface compatibility and verify that any substitute part matches the 120-position count and 1.27mm pitch specifications exactly.
