Overview

SIST EN 4165-010:2025 is the European standard defining the requirements for rack and panel rear mounted plugs, specifically designed for aerospace applications. These electrical rectangular connectors are modular, capable of operating continuously at high temperatures up to 175 °C, and manufactured in configurations of 2 and 4 modules within series 2. The standard ensures compatibility and performance for these high-temperature aerospace connectors, supporting reliable electrical connectivity in demanding environments.

The standard has been approved by CEN and is applicable across multiple European countries, superseding the previous version EN 4165-010:2007. It forms part of the broader EN 4165 family focusing on aerospace series connectors that operate continuously at 175 °C.

Key Topics

• Scope and Purpose
  Specifies rack and panel rear mounted plugs (2 and 4 module configurations) used within aerospace rectangular modular electrical connectors operating at 175 °C continuous temperature.

• Design and Dimensions
  Exact mechanical characteristics including dimensions (in millimeters) and mass limits:

  • 2 Modules plug max. mass 38.1 g
  • 4 Modules plug max. mass 43.7 g

• Plug Classes
  Different plug classes, such as W and F, are defined detailing specific mechanical and electrical properties within module sizes.

• Marking Requirements
  Mandatory marking includes:

  • Identity block as per designation guidelines
  • Date of manufacture (year and week)
  • Manufacturer's name or trademark
    This helps ensure traceability and quality assurance of aerospace-grade connectors.

• Normative References
  SIST EN 4165-010:2025 references other critical documents including:

  • EN 4165-001: Technical specification for the entire aerospace 175 °C modular connector series
  • EN 4165-002: Specifications for receptacles and accessories matching the plugs
  • EN 4165-021: Coupling system keyway for plugs

Applications

SIST EN 4165-010:2025 plugs are specifically engineered for the aerospace industry where durable, high-temperature-resistant electrical connections are critical. Their modular and rectangular design makes them ideal for:

• Aircraft Avionics Systems
• Spacecraft Electrical Interfaces
• High-Temperature Aerospace Electronic Equipment
• Rack and Panel Electrical Installations in Aerospace Vehicles

These connectors withstand continuous elevated temperatures up to 175 °C, maintaining integrity and performance under harsh operational conditions typical in aerospace environments. Their rear mounting design facilitates secure integration into rack and panel assemblies with ease of installation and maintenance.

Related Standards

This product standard integrates and supports a family of related EN 4165 standards crucial for aerospace connector systems:

• EN 4165-001 – Technical specifications for aerospace modular connectors operating at 175 °C
• EN 4165-002 – Performance and contact arrangements for matching receptacles and accessories
• EN 4165-021 – Standard defining coupling system keyways for plugs

Compliance with these standards ensures a complete, interoperable connector system within aerospace electrical architectures, conforming to strict quality and safety requirements.

---

By adhering to the SIST EN 4165-010:2025 standard, manufacturers and aerospace system integrators secure high reliability and standardized quality for rear mounted rack and panel plugs designed to survive continuous exposure to elevated temperatures, essential for advanced aerospace electrical connectivity.
