How it solves a problem: Replaces unreliable or non‑standard connectors with a MIL‑spec component set, reducing wiring failures, simplifying maintenance, and ensuring compatibility with other MS310xseries hardware. What makes it unique: Supplied as the MS3108A 18‑8S / MS3102A 18‑8P combination, this 8‑contact connector adheres to established military standards and mates with corresponding MS310series components for predictable performance in field and industrial environments. Key attributes Model: MS5015 series; includes MS3108A 18‑8S and MS3102A 18‑8P (matched MS310series connectors). Contact count: 8 cores (8 contacts) for mixed signal and power wiring in a single connector body. Standard: U.S. Military Standard — designed for compatibility with other MIL‑spec MS310x connectors. Functionality: Provides secure, multi‑circuit connections for avionics, communications, industrial controls, and other equipment requiring MIL‑spec interconnects. Compatibility: Mates with standard MS310series counterparts; suitable for integration into systems and harnesses that specify MS310 connectors. Performance expectations: Designed to meet the durability, repeatability, and interoperability requirements associated with military‑standard connectors. Benefits at a glance Interoperability: Works with existing MS310/MIL‑spec hardware to simplify replacements and upgrades. Consolidation: Eight contacts in one connector reduce bulk and improve routing compared with multiple single‑line connectors. Maintenance friendly: Standardized pin layout and military compatibility speed troubleshooting and field servicing. Versatile: Appropriate for signal and low‑to‑medium power circuits in harsh environments where reliability matters. Typical applications / use cases Aircraft and avionics systems: Wiring harness repairs, instrument panels, and line‑replaceable units where MIL‑spec connectors are required. Ground support and test equipment: Reliable connections between test sets, power supplies, and instrumentation in maintenance bays. Industrial control and communications: Control cabinets, radio equipment, and other systems that benefit from a standardized, multi‑contact military connector. What to expect when integrating Use with compatible MS310series mating parts and wiring practices for MIL‑spec connectors. Commonly used in harness assemblies, panel mounts, and equipment interfaces that call out MS310/MS5015 standards. Suitable wherever a rugged, standardized 8‑contact aviation connector is required.
