What is D-Subminiature? How is D-Subminiature used? Where is D-Subminiature used?
D-Subminiature products are connection D-Subminiature products are used to connect a D-Subminiature products are used in numerous
products utilizing various D-Subminiature style data generating device such as a CPU (Central data transmission applications found in office,
interface types to transmit data signals. Processing Unit) to a data producing device industrial, home or testing environments.
such as a printer.

Poorly shielded cables can cause systems to fail EMI Certification

L-com's manufacturing process includes 360 degree shielding under the mold to insure full shielding from the bulk cable shield to the connector shell.
Some competitors shortcut this process by just tack soldering the cable drain wire to the connector shell. In many applications this shortcut results in
EMI leakage causing systems to fail testing.

What is the difference between assembled and
molded cable assemblies?
The difference between an assembled and molded cable assembly is in the
construction of the backshell. An assembled backshell can be plastic
(not shielded) or metal (shielded) and can be disassembled by removing
hardware. On a molded cable assembly, the backshell is typically molded PVC
that cannot be disassembled.
