Sub-D Connector ShiverPeaks 79115-2 — 15-pin D-sub serial connector

The ShiverPeaks 79115-2 Sub-D connector is a 15-pin D-sub type connector engineered for serial and multi-signal connections. It offers a standard 15-contact interface commonly used for RS-232 serial links, analog video signals, and other multi-pin signal paths. The connector is suitable for panel or cable mounting in industrial, instrumentation and computing environments where a compact, reliable multi-pin interface is required.

Advantages

The connector provides a compact 15-pin footprint with proven mechanical stability and consistent electrical contact for multi-signal applications. Its design supports both panel and cable mounting, enabling flexible installation options. Metal shell shielding and robust contact alignment reduce interference and maintain signal integrity in electrically noisy environments. The solder-cup contact style allows secure wire terminations for custom cabling and repairable connections.

Suitable for

• RS-232 serial communications between devices
• Analog video or multi-conductor signal connections
• Panel-mounted interfaces on instrumentation and control panels
• Custom cables and harnesses requiring soldered terminations

Key specifications

• Connector type: 15-pin D-sub (Sub-D) female solder-cup
• Contact count: 15 contacts for multi-signal routing
• Mounting options: panel mount and cable termination capable
• Contact termination: solder-cup (soldered wires)
• Shell: metal housing for EMI shielding and mechanical support
• Typical applications: serial communications, analog video, multi-conductor signaling

How to use

Prepare conductor ends by stripping insulation to the appropriate length for the solder-cup contacts. Tin wires as needed, insert each conductor into the corresponding solder cup, and apply solder to form reliable joints. Secure the connector to the panel using the provided mounting points or assemble into a cable assembly using strain relief hardware. Verify pin assignments with your device documentation before wiring to ensure correct signal routing and prevent damage.

Usage recommendations

Use correct soldering practices and a temperature-controlled iron to avoid damage to contacts. Confirm pinout and signal levels for RS-232 or analog signals to ensure compatibility. If installing in electrically noisy environments, ensure proper panel grounding and enclosure shielding to maintain signal integrity.
