Norcomp Zinc Alloy Right Angle D-Sub Backshell, 15 Way, High Density, Strain Relief, 981-015-030R121

The Norcomp 981-015-030R121 is a high-performance zinc alloy right angle D-Sub backshell engineered to provide optimal strain relief in 15-way high-density D-Sub connector arrangements. Ideal for demanding industrial and electronic installations, this backshell features rugged die-cast construction and a nickel-plated finish, ensuring over 70 dB shielding effectiveness for EMI protection and long service life even in environments with electromagnetic interference.

Its right angle configuration makes it particularly suited for installations where space constraints require cables to exit at 90 degrees to the connector interface, enhancing cable organization and minimizing mechanical stress on wiring. The unit’s design incorporates a non-conductive grommet, reducing the risk of short circuits and improving safety for sensitive circuits.

The Norcomp 981 Series backshell is engineered for simple assembly, reducing manufacturing costs and installation time. Its high-density configuration (15 ways) and integrated strain relief make it a preferred choice for securing cable terminations in professional electronic systems, including automation equipment, industrial control units, instrumentation, and computing devices.

With a sleek silver appearance, the robust housing offers both aesthetic enhancement and superior corrosion resistance. The combination of zinc alloy base material and nickel plating ensures mechanical durability and reliable contact integrity over repeated connection cycles.

Typical applications for this right angle D-Sub backshell include usage in communication interfaces, data acquisition systems, manufacturing automation, laboratory equipment, and any environment requiring secure D-Sub terminations and efficient EMI/RFI shielding. The high-density 15-way configuration enables connectivity in compact electronic assemblies while maintaining high performance criteria.

Engineers and technical personnel seeking reliable D-Sub connector protection and strain relief will appreciate the Norcomp 981-015-030R121’s blend of material strength, electrical shielding properties, and space-saving form factor. Its design supports efficient, long-term operation in a wide range of industrial and electronic systems, aligning with best practices in hardware integration and maintenance.
