154180-0002-MS is a Micro-D metal shell connector from the MDM series, designed for applications requiring highly reliable, extremely small, and lightweight connectors with high-density contact configurations. The connector features aluminum shells providing EMI and RFI shielding, and employs size 24 MICROPIN/MICROSOCKET contacts on 0.050" (1.27 mm) centers with a silicone elastomer compression interfacial seal for moisture and humidity protection. It is rated for dielectric withstanding voltage of 600 VAC at sea level and 150 VAC at 70,000' altitude, with insulation resistance of 5,000 megohms minimum. The connector withstands thermal shock from -55°C to +125°C, physical shock of 50 G's, and vibration of 20 G's from 10-2,000 Hz. Common applications include aerospace, military, and industrial systems where environmental performance, ruggedness, and high contact density are essential.
