D-Sub, D-Shaped Connectors – Housings are a specialized type of electronics connector. They are commonly used in applications such as telecommunications, fiber optics, electronic test and measurement, and industrial automation. The connector housing is shaped like a “D” and provides a compact design with up to two full rows of multiple contacts in a small form factor. The contacts are generally configured in a grid pattern, with even numbers of pins on each side of the connectors. This design allows for precise mating capabilities and ensures reliable electrical connections.

The 180-078-172-020 D-Sub connector is used in applications requiring multiple contacts in a small area. It has up to two rows of connections in a 2-wide array. This allows for up to four contacts in a 40-pin configuration. All 180-078-172-020 contacts have gold plated contacts and are made from durable thermoplastic housings. The connector also features specialized EMI-shield hardware to prevent electromagnetic interference.

The 180-078-172-020 connector works by providing secure electrical connections between two components. The contact pins provide a direct contact with the other component, and the gold plating helps protect against corrosion or wear from repeated use. The EMI-shield hardware helps reduce noise and other interference between the connected components. Finally, the thermoplastic housing ensures the connector is durable and reliable.

In summary, the 180-078-172-020 D-Sub connector is a specialized electronics connector for applications requiring multiple contacts in a compact space. It features gold plated contacts with thermoplastic housings for reliable and durable connections. The EMI-shield hardware also helps to reduce noise and other interference between connected components.
