Push-pull D-sub connector housings: What took so long?

Introduction to Push-pull D-sub Connectors

The Push-pull D-sub connector offers several advantages for easy and efficient connections in various applications.

Background and Benefits

Harting has introduced push-on, push-off hardware that saves time when connecting and disconnecting D-Sub connectors. This innovation addresses a long-standing issue, as evident from past experiences in industries such as semiconductor process equipment manufacturing.

Our engineers and technicians were constantly connecting and disconnecting DB-25 connectors attached to cables that connected control boards to electromechanical modules such as wafer spinners and cassette elevators.

In the past, cables had to be screwed down to prevent them from falling out, which was time-consuming. Similarly, users of VGA computer monitors with 15-pin D-Sub connectors face the hassle of dealing with plastic thumbscrews to secure the connectors in place.

Conclusion and Summary

In conclusion, the push-pull D-sub connector housing offers a convenient solution for efficient connections. Author's summary: Push-pull connectors simplify connections.
