WGA122SAD11SY-16

Overview

The WGA122SAD11SY-16 is a rectangular MIL-Spec connector from the AirBorn W Series, manufactured by Molex. It features 122 positions arranged in three rows with a 2.54 mm pitch. Designed as a receptacle with female socket contacts, it utilizes gold-plated copper alloy terminals and a Polyphenylene Sulfide (PPS) housing. The component supports through-hole termination for board mounting and operates within a temperature range of -65°C to +125°C.

Feature Summary

• Compliant with MIL-DTL-55302 standards for military-grade reliability
• High-density configuration with 122 contact positions across three rows
• Constructed with corrosion-resistant gold-plated copper alloy sockets
• Engineered with high-performance PPS insulation for thermal stability

Applications

• Avionics systems requiring certified MIL-Spec interconnects
• Radar and communication equipment installations
• Defense electronics and mission-critical control panels
• Harsh environment industrial instrumentation

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix '-16' against official Molex/AirBorn documentation to confirm exact locking mechanism or accessory inclusion. Ensure compatibility with mating plugs regarding row alignment and terminal gender. Request current RoHS certificates and material declarations prior to final procurement approval.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a 122-position, three-row receptacle is required for PCB integration. Confirm that the 2.54 mm pitch aligns with the target circuit board layout. Verify that the straight mounting style and through-hole termination method suit the assembly process and mechanical constraints of the enclosure design.

Part Context

This part belongs to the AirBorn W Series, a family of high-reliability rectangular connectors designed for demanding applications. The series offers various position counts and row configurations while maintaining consistent MIL-DTL-55302 compliance. The WGA variant specifically denotes a three-row receptacle configuration within this standardized product line.

Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with M55302/58-C122Y equivalents. Verify physical dimensions and pinout compatibility before substituting.
