WTBV60PCSY

Overview

The AirBorn WTBV60PCSY is a rectangular MIL-DTL-55302 series board mount plug connector. It features 60 positions arranged in two rows with a 2.54 mm (0.1 inch) contact pitch. The housing is constructed from Polyphenylene Sulfide (PPS), and the contacts are gold-plated copper alloy pins rated for 5 A current and 1 kV voltage. Designed for through-hole termination, it operates within a temperature range of -65 °C to +125 °C and maintains an insulation resistance of 5 GOhms.

Feature Summary

• Compliant with MIL-DTL-55302 military specifications for rugged reliability
• Utilizes high-performance PPS plastic housing for thermal stability
• Features gold-plated copper alloy contacts for corrosion resistance
• Supports secure through-hole board mounting configurations

Applications

• Military avionics systems requiring certified interconnects
• Ruggedized ground-based communication equipment
• High-reliability industrial control panels
• Aerospace instrumentation modules

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix codes against official Molex/AirBorn documentation to confirm exact pin count, orientation, and termination style. Ensure compatibility with mating receptacles under MIL-DTL-55302 standards. Confirm RoHS status and environmental certifications required for your specific deployment environment before finalizing orders.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a straight, board-mount plug with 60 circuits is required. Verify that the 2.54 mm pitch aligns with your PCB layout constraints. Ensure the 5 A per contact rating meets your circuit load requirements. Confirm that the operating temperature range covers your application's extreme conditions.

Part Context

This part belongs to the AirBorn W Series, a family of rectangular connectors designed for harsh environments. The series offers various configurations including right-angle and straight mounts with different contact counts. These connectors are widely used in defense and aerospace sectors where vibration resistance and signal integrity are critical.

Replacement Considerations

Equivalent parts include M55302/58-C60X. Verify mechanical dimensions and electrical ratings match exactly before substitution.
