Applications

The D38999/46WJ24SN is the EMI/RFI grounding variant of the Series III straight plug, carrying 24 rear-release crimp socket contacts — 12 of size 20 and 12 of size 16 — in a shell 25 envelope (arrangement 25-24). The integral grounding fingers bond the plug shell to the receptacle shell before the contacts engage, keeping shield continuity across the interface and suppressing the radiated emissions a conventional plug leaks at the coupling ring. That makes the /46 style the usual choice for airframe harnesses, avionics bays and equipment racks where the cable shield must be carried through the connector rather than terminated at the backshell. Class W olive drab cadmium over electroless nickel provides conductive corrosion protection to the 500-hour salt-spray rating, and Tri-Start threaded coupling with scoop-proof shells gives the 500-cycle durability rating.
