D-Sub15 Female to Terminal Block with Enclosure DeLOCK 66569

The DeLOCK D-Sub15 Female to Terminal Block with Enclosure (model 66569) provides a serial Sub-D15 female connector linked to a 16-pin terminal block within a protective plastic housing. The adapter allows direct connection of bare wires to the Sub-D interface and is suitable for industrial applications as well as hobby projects such as model railways. The black enclosure protects the PCB from dirt and mechanical damage while maintaining a compact footprint.

Advantages

The integrated 16-pin terminal block simplifies wiring by allowing secure fastening of bare conductors, while the screw-on strain relief secures the cable inside the enclosure to reduce stress on solder joints and terminals. The plastic enclosure adds protection against dust and accidental contact, and the standard D-Sub15 female connector ensures compatibility with common serial interfaces.

Suitable for

• Connecting sensors, controllers or legacy serial devices to custom wiring
• Prototyping and hobby electronics, e.g. model railway installations
• Industrial equipment requiring a compact D-Sub to terminal block interface

Key specifications

• Connector 1: serial Sub-D15 (female)
• Connector 2: 16-pin terminal block
• Product colour: Black
• Enclosure: plastic with screw-on strain relief

How to use

Strip the insulation from the wire ends, insert each bare conductor into the appropriate terminal on the 16-pin block and tighten the terminal screws to secure the connection. Route the cable through the enclosure and fasten the screw-on strain relief to fix the cable and minimise movement. Plug the D-Sub15 female connector into the corresponding male port on your device.

Recommendations

Use conductors sized and insulated appropriately for your application, avoid exceeding the current and voltage ratings of the connected devices, and ensure all terminal screws are tightened to prevent intermittent connections. For installations in dusty or harsh environments consider additional sealing around the enclosure.
