Figure 4-2. D-Subminiature Connector Examples

D-Subminiature connectors are also called Type 'D' or 'D-Sub' connectors. The
cable plug and chassis receptacle each feature a D-shaped profile that interlock
to ensure proper pin orientation and connector seating. The connector pair
features multiple rows of pins (male side) coupled to mating sockets (female
side).
Whether the gender is male or female, the cable plug features two jack screws
for secure connection to the jack nuts provided on the mating chassis receptacle.
Connection Instructions: Orient the plug to the receptacle in the proper
position. Press firmly into place. Hand tighten, or use a standard flat-blade
screwdriver, to secure the plug jack screws to the receptacle jack nuts. Do not
over-tighten.
About connector pinout tables: Figure 4-2 identifies the Pin 1 location for either
gender connector. The connector pinout tables provided in this manual base the
order of information (i.e., the "Pin #" column) on this orientation, except where
noted.
Type 'SMA' connectors feature a
Threaded Coupling design similar to
Type 'TNC', Type 'N', and Type 'F'
connectors.
