CUSTOM D’SUB BACKSHELLS

Novamax provides D-Sub connector backshells that include a power input feature, ideal for creating custom interface cables that combine serial communication (RS422/RS232) with DC power input. These backshells are available in various cable entry sizes and include two common sizes for power input connectors. They can also be customized with labeling and, optionally, a built-in PCB to accommodate your electronics.
Our shielded D-Sub backshell electrical connectors are constructed from aluminum, feature a broad operating temperature range (-50°C to 100°C), and provide excellent EMI/RFI protection.

Select from the options below to configure your part number and reach out to us today:

BACKSHELL (items 1, 3 on the drawing below).
Aluminum alloy 6061 backshells are available with or without finish (default). You can choose from the following protective plating options: anodizing (including MIL-A-8625), chromate plating (MIL-DTL-5541), and Chem Film.

BARREL CONNECTOR (item 2 on the drawing below).
The pigtail cable is 150mm long and comes in two sizes: 2.1ID/5.5OD and 2.5ID/5.5OD. It features color-coded 24AWG wires that are stripped and tinned at the open end.

CABLE ENTRY (item 9 on the drawing below).
Available in two sizes: for cable OD 4-7mm and OD 7-10mm. For quick and easy installation without the need for special tools, our cable outlet with screws is ideal for those who need a fast and straightforward setup. It features a two-piece cable clamp for effective strain relief and is designed with ribs to prevent cable retention.

D’SUB-9 (item 6 on the drawing below).
Available as a male or female solder cup connector, with or without jackposts. If you have specific requirements for the connector, our backshells are compatible with any MIL-C-24308 and MIL-C-83513 series connectors.

CUSTOM LABEL (item 4 on the drawing below).
Optional polyester labels with your company name or logo are available. For MIL-STD-130 labels, please contact us directly.

BUILT-IN ELECTRONICS (item 5 on the drawing below).
Integrate your circuitry directly into the connector housing. This can include components such as EMC filters, TVS protection, pushbuttons, or other elements. For more details, please contact us at support@novamaxllc.com
