Pan Pacific DM‑25C Metal Die Cast Hood for 25‑Pin D‑Sub Connectors
The Pan Pacific DM‑25C is a heavy-duty, die-cast metal hood specifically engineered for standard 25-pin D-subminiature (DB-25) connectors. Designed to deliver both mechanical durability and reliable EMI/RFI shielding, this hood is ideal for installations in industrial controls, audio/video systems, and data communication networks where connector protection and signal integrity are critical.
Built from a zinc alloy die-cast housing, the DM‑25C features a robust metal clamp-style strain relief that provides secure cable retention while minimizing stress on the connector. Each unit comes complete with all necessary hardware including screws, saddle washer, nuts, and shoulder screws, allowing for fast, secure, and professional-grade assembly in the field or shop.

Application Scenario
A common application for the DM‑25C hood is in factory automation and control systems, where DB‑25 connectors are used to transmit data between PLCs, motor controllers, or industrial PCs. For example, a field technician wiring a shielded DB‑25 cable in a noisy electrical cabinet can use the DM‑25C to ensure the connection remains secure, protected from EMI, and compliant with shielding requirements. Its clamp strain relief is especially useful when dealing with thicker industrial-grade cables.
