WTBT14SAR7J

Overview

The WTBT14SAR7J is a rectangular MIL-Spec connector from the AirBorn W Series, manufactured by Molex. It is a receptacle featuring 14 positions arranged in two rows with a 2.54 mm pitch. The component utilizes gold-plated copper alloy socket contacts and solder termination for PCB mounting. Constructed with a Polyphenylene Sulfide (PPS) shell, it operates within a temperature range of -65°C to +125°C. Rated for 5 A current and 5 GOhms insulation resistance, this right-angle connector complies with military standards.

Feature Summary

• Military-grade construction compliant with MIL-DTL-55302 specifications
• Right-angle PCB mount design for space-constrained applications
• Gold-plated copper alloy contacts ensure reliable signal transmission

Applications

• Avionics systems requiring high-reliability interconnects
• Radar and electronic warfare equipment
• Ground-based military communication hardware

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'J' against official Molex/AirBorn documentation to confirm plating thickness or environmental rating variations. Ensure mating parts match the 14-position, 2-row configuration. Confirm RoHS compliance status through the manufacturer's latest datasheet before integration into regulated assemblies.

Selection Notes

Select this part for applications necessitating a right-angle receptacle with solder termination. Verify that the mating plug corresponds to the WTB series with compatible contact types. Ensure the PCB layout accommodates the right-angle orientation and the specified 2.54 mm pitch spacing for proper alignment.

Part Context

This component belongs to the AirBorn W Series, designed for mission-critical environments. The series offers various contact counts and orientations, providing robust connectivity solutions for defense and aerospace sectors where vibration resistance and durability are paramount.

Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes include other MIL-DTL-55302 compliant connectors with identical 14-position, 2-row, right-angle configurations. Verify dimensional compatibility and electrical ratings before substitution.
