P156-000

D-Sub, D-Shaped Connectors and Adapters (P156-000) are components used in a variety of industries and applications, including medical, aerospace, automotive, consumer electronics, scientific instrumentation, and industrial automation. They are frequently used as connectors in any system that requires the transmission of signals, data, or power. The P156-000 connectors and adapters form the link between two or more wires or cables in a system.

A D-Sub connector is a specific type of electrical connector frequently used for data and signal transmission. It is available in both a digital and an analog version and comes in standard sizes ranging from 9, 15, 25 and 37-way. It is also available in board mount, panel mount, and IDC types. The common types of D-Sub connectors and adapters include solder cup, shrouded, and flat solder connectors with cable-to-board, board-to-board, and co-axial connections.

The primary components of a D-Sub connector are a metal shell, plastic inner body, contact pins, and external insulation. The metal shell is usually made of steel or stainless steel and acts as a protective cover and strain relief. The plastic inner body is designed to hold the contact pins and act as a strain relief. The contact pins are typically made of bronze, stainless steel, or brass and are available in different structural configurations depending on the system requirements. The external insulation is usually made of PVC or Polyurethane and prevents the connector from becoming damaged in harsh environments.

The working principle of a D-Sub connector and adapter is simple. The inner body acts as the insulator between the pins and the metal shell. The contact pins transfer signals, data, or power between the mating electrical components. The insulation layer also prevents any damages caused by the environment.

P156-000 connectors and adapters are most commonly used in applications that require high-speed data transmission in harsh environments. They are perfect for industrial automation, medical equipment, communication systems, coordinate measuring machines, automotive components, and large consumer products. The robust design of these connectors ensures that the proper connections are made securely and quickly. The connectors can withstand vibrations and shocks, as well as operating temperatures up to 65°C.

D-Sub connectors and adapters are high quality and dependable components for a wide array of applications. They are available in a variety of sizes and shapes and come in different contact pin configurations. Manufacturers such as Pomona and Anderson offer a broad selection of these components, along with the required tools and accessories. You can choose the proper P156-000 connectors and adapters according to the number of pins, the type of connection required, and the environment that the components will be used in.
