WTB100SAD9JTB

Overview

The WTB100SAD9JTB is a rectangular MIL-DTL-55302 series board mount receptacle manufactured by Molex / AirBorn. It features 100 positions arranged in two rows with a 2.54 mm pitch. The connector utilizes female socket contacts made of copper alloy, plated with gold, and terminates via through-hole soldering. Designed for vertical installation on printed circuit boards, it operates within a temperature range of -65 °C to +125 °C. The housing is constructed from Polyphenylene Sulfide (PPS), providing high insulation resistance and durability for demanding environments.

Feature Summary

• Compliant with MIL-DTL-55302 military specifications for high reliability
• Utilizes gold-plated copper alloy socket contacts for stable signal transmission
• Features a robust Polyphenylene Sulfide (PPS) insulating body
• Supports vertical through-hole mounting for secure PCB integration

Applications

• Military avionics systems requiring certified interconnect solutions
