The COB filters consist of chip capacitors surface-mounted on a pc board integrated into the connector.The filtered D-subs have a 0.318" footprint, permitting them to be used as drop-in replacements for unfiltered designs. They also feature a dielectric withstanding voltage of 250 Vac for 5 seconds and a current rating of 5A. Series 100 connectors come in 9-, 15-, 25- and 37-position versions and are compatible with full metal shell cable connectors.
