Frequently Asked Questions
What type of connector is the MWDM2L-15SSB?
It is a 15-position Glenair Micro-D receptacle with female socket contacts and solder-cup termination.
What wire size does it support?
The solder cups are designed for #26 AWG wire.
What are its main electrical ratings?
Each contact is rated for 3A, with 600VAC dielectric withstand at sea level, 5,000MΩ minimum insulation resistance and 8mΩ maximum contact resistance.
What connector mates with the MWDM2L-15SSB?
The corresponding male-contact configuration is the MWDM2L-15PSB. The mounting hardware should also be checked for compatibility.
Is the MWDM2L-15SSB MIL-DTL-83513 qualified?
It is a commercial Glenair MWDM part number. Use an applicable M83513 part number, such as M83513/02-BN, when the program explicitly requires a QPL MIL-DTL-83513 connector.
