Connector ShiverPeaks SUB-D 25-pin (model 79125-2) – 25 contacts, D-sub format

ShiverPeaks SUB-D 25-pin connector model 79125-2 is a D-sub style electrical connector that provides up to 25 individual contacts in a compact, standardized shell. Intended for panel- or cable-mount use, this 25-contact D-sub connector supports common serial and signal interfaces, making it compatible with equipment that requires the D-sub form factor for reliable mechanical mating and electrical connection.

Advantages

The connector offers a standardized D-sub format that ensures compatibility with a wide range of cables and mating shells. Its 25-contact configuration enables multi-signal transmission within a single connector footprint, reducing cable bulk and simplifying wiring. The construction is suitable for industrial and instrumentation environments where secure mechanical retention and consistent contact alignment are important.

Suitable for

• Serial communications and RS-232 equipment requiring a 25-pin interface
• Panel-mount or cable-termination applications in industrial control systems
• Instrumentation and test equipment with D-sub signal requirements
• Legacy parallel and multi-conductor signal connections

Key specifications

• Connector type: D-sub 25-contact configuration
• Contact count: 25 electrical contacts
• Mounting options: suitable for panel-mount or cable-mount installations
• Typical use: signal and data connections, serial interfaces
• Shell format: standardized D-sub housing for mechanical compatibility

How to use

Install the connector by securing it to the panel cutout or terminating it to a compatible cable harness following the mechanical mounting provisions of the D-sub format. Ensure correct pin mapping and wiring per the equipment schematic before mating. When connecting, align the shell and engage the mating screws or retention hardware to achieve proper mechanical contact and reliable electrical connection.

Recommendations

Verify pin assignments and continuity with a multimeter before powering connected equipment. Use appropriate strain relief and cable management to prevent mechanical stress on the contacts and maintain long-term reliability in industrial or frequently handled installations.
