Series 500 Low Profile
Filtered Connectors
API’s Spectrum Control brand of Series 500 are cost
effective, highly reliable EMI filtered D-subminiature
connectors that feature a .318" footprint for 90 degree
PCB connectors and a low profile housing on straight
PCB connectors. Series 500 filtered D-subs are “drop-in”
replacements for standard unfiltered D-sub connectors.
Features
The ability of these connectors to achieve EMI filtering
within the smaller footprint is the result of technical
advances in ceramic capacitors. Series 500 connectors
use tubular capacitors for high performance EMI filtering.
Quality features for these connectors include board lock
mounting, metal front shells and gold plated contacts.
