bers of mating cycles. The AD/HAD connector can be
easily replaced, “saving” a connector which is not eas-
ily replaced.
These connectors can also be used as a “gender

AD and HAD series connectors are suitable for use in
any applications requiring high performance characteristic.
The normal density AD and HAD series are available in
five standard connector variants of 9, 15, 25, 37 and 50
contacts.
AD and HAD series connectors utilize precision
machined contacts for strength and durability. AD series
female contact features a rugged open entry design.
HAD series female contact features the PosiBand closed
entry design for even higher reliability, see page 1 for
details.
AD and HAD series connectors can be mated to a
connector which would normally experience high num-
