Originally known as ‘ D-subminiature ’ DB style connectors are common UFD connectors or say monitor cables which operate in computing devices, audio/video, and data applications. DB25 and DB9 serial cables are the renowned types of D-sub connectors, used in PCs for serial and parallel ports. The High-Density DB style is another type of D-sub connector which looks like a regular DB connector. Often called ‘HD’ connectors they have three rows of pins instead of two. HD15 is the most common type of connector used for video cards and monitors. Micro DB connector comes with smaller pins than the HD connector pins. It is commonly known as a ‘half-pitch’ DB connector. Majorly, SCSI applications use them. MD50 and MD68 are the most popular connections types. The D-sub connectors’ names are equivalent with the total number of pins that they can hold. For example, DB9 Series Cables contain 9 pins. However, in some cases, a DB25 connector has 4 to 5 loaded pins. Another product is the HD1...
