VIBRO-METER 271-101-161-112 | ARINC 600 Rack Connector

The VIBRO-METER 271-101-161-112 is an ARINC 600 rack-and-panel connector associated with aerospace and avionics equipment interfaces. The supplied reference also identifies 271-101-175-113 as a related connector part number. ARINC 600 connectors provide a modular rack-to-equipment interface for line-replaceable units, supporting combinations of signal, power, and high-frequency contacts depending on the insert configuration.

This type of connector is intended for applications where a replaceable avionics or electronic unit must mate with a fixed equipment rack. The ARINC 600 architecture uses rectangular modular shells and selectable insert arrangements, making the exact shell, insert, polarization, and contact configuration important when selecting a replacement.
