The 096510-0011 is a Micro-D metal shell connector featuring 0.050" (1.27 mm) contact spacing designed for highly reliable, lightweight, and compact interconnect applications. It employs size 24 MICROPIN/MICROSOCKET contacts on 0.050" centers and is available in multiple shell sizes accommodating 9 to 100 contacts with aluminum shells that provide enhanced strength, electromagnetic (EMI) and RFI shielding, and moisture resistance through silicone elastomer compression interfacial seals. The connector supports multiple mounting configurations including front panel mounting, rear panel mounting, and edgeboard mounting, with various hardware options such as screw lock assemblies, jackposts, and jackscrew assemblies. These connectors are engineered to meet demanding environmental and performance requirements in applications requiring extremely small, high-density connector solutions with superior reliability and environmental sealing.
