3M 3357 Series Shielded D-Sub Backshell, ABS Body, 45° Entry

The 3M 3357 Series Shielded D-Sub Backshell is a crucial component for professional cable assemblies, engineered to ensure reliable signal integrity and robust physical protection. Featuring a durable ABS (Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene) body, this backshell offers a lightweight yet resilient housing designed to withstand the rigours of industrial and commercial use. Its primary function is to protect and provide strain relief for D-sub cable terminations, preventing damage to the cable and connector interface from pulling, twisting, or environmental stress.

A key feature of this model is its integrated electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding. This construction safeguards the connection from external electrical noise, which is essential for maintaining clear signal transmission in sensitive electronic applications. The shielded design ensures data integrity in environments with high levels of electromagnetic activity. The 45-degree cable entry angle is a thoughtful design element that aids in cable routing, helping to minimise bend radius and reduce strain, which is particularly beneficial in confined spaces or complex cabinet layouts.

Designed for DE-size D-sub connectors, this backshell is part of the trusted 3M 3357 series, known for its quality and reliability. The product arrives ready for installation, contributing to a neat and professional finish for any cabling project. Its compact dimensions ensure it fits seamlessly into existing setups without requiring excessive space.
