Whirlwind 176-Pin Inline Crimp Type Pin/Socket Mass Connector

From the professional audio and video equipment to sophisticated broadcast systems, the Whirlwind W4IRP 176-Pin Inline Mass Connector stands as a critical component for ensuring reliable and secure connections. This high-density connector features a robust crimp type design, with replaceable pins and sockets that cater to maintenance ease and longevity.

The durable metal shell of the Whirlwind W4IRP is engineered to withstand harsh conditions, offering superior protection against moisture and physical damage. Its innovative hermaphroditic design simplifies inventory management and reduces the complexity associated with traditional male/female connector systems, as it requires fewer unique parts.

Each connector is meticulously crafted with a resilient rubber insert that houses an equal number of pins and sockets, ensuring a balanced and consistent connection for up to 58 balanced, shielded signal lines. The housings, constructed from precision-machined aluminum, add to the connector's overall durability and reliability.

For secure fastening, the Whirlwind W4IRP is equipped with a threaded locking ring that guarantees a steadfast connection, even in environments where vibrations or movement might otherwise compromise the integrity of the connection. The mating process is streamlined: when connecting two inline connectors, one locking ring is simply unscrewed to reveal the threads, which are then securely fastened by the opposing locking ring.

Ideal for a wide range of applications that demand high-quality signal transmission, the Whirlwind W4IRP 176-Pin Inline Mass Connector is an indispensable tool for professionals in the electronics field who require a reliable, high-performance connectivity solution.
