# AirBorn 00514-0433-0018 REV A: What to Confirm Before Ordering The AirBorn 00514-0433-0018 REV A is a rectangular board-mount connector in the same family as the 00514-0433-0017 REV A. AirBorn specializes in rugged, high-reliability interconnects for military, aerospace, space and industrial systems, where connectors must survive vibration, shock and wide temperature swings. Related part numbers in such families usually differ in position count, contact arrangement, mounting hardware or termination. Because the public listing does not give those details, engineers should compare the drawings for both dash numbers rather than assuming the parts are interchangeable. Key items to check include the number of positions and rows, contact pitch, PCB termination style such as through-hole or surface mount, contact plating, mating connector, polarization and any applicable military or customer specification. The REV A revision must also match the approved drawing. For sustainment programs, this kind of connector is often needed in small quantities long after original production. Ask suppliers for certificates of conformance and traceability, and plan inspection of contacts and housings on receipt. Storing spares in sealed bags with desiccant, and buying enough for the expected remaining life of the equipment, reduces the risk of future shortages.
