The 62GB-56T16-26SN is a threaded circular electrical connector plug designed for aerospace, avionics, and industrial platforms. It conforms to MIL-DTL-26482 Series 2 (formerly 62GB) requirements. Note: MIL-DTL-26482 Series 2 is a distinct standard, separate from MIL-DTL-26482 Series 1 (MS3106), MIL-DTL-38999 / GJB599, MIL-DTL-27484 (MS27484), MIL-DTL-27497 (MS27497), MIL-DTL-27473 (MS27473), MIL-DTL-27508 (MS27508), JY27466 (GJB), 8D series, Y50 series, YLH series, ZH8525 series, YH3116 series, YW1 series, and SMA RF coaxial connectors, and is not directly form-fit-function interchangeable with any of those connectors unless confirmed by the supplier. MIL-DTL-26482 Series 1 and Series 2 are also NOT interchangeable with each other.
This threaded plug features shell size 16 (approximately equivalent to D38999 shell size E / 17), insert arrangement 26 (confirm exact contact count and type with supplier), socket contacts (S), and normal keying (N). The "56" style code and "T" coupling designator require supplier confirmation for exact meaning. The design supports EMI shielding, scoop-proof mating, self-locking threaded coupling, and removable crimp contacts.
