Features
Shell Size
D38999 connectors are available in 9 shell sizes.
D38999 Connector Keying Position
Six distinct keying positions are available for each shell size in the D38999 series of connectors: N, A, B, C, D, and E. A plug will only mate with a receptacle with the same keying code. Having 6 different keying positions allows the use of up to six D38999/26FJ61P plugs in the same space without the possibility of mating a plug with the incorrect receptacle.
The 39030 specification defines families of shells that intermate to protect from vibration, shock, and moisture. Inside the connectors are inserts that can be configured for various contact arrangements.
