evidence of physical damage.
EIA-364-28, Test Condition I.
Subject mated plug and jack
mounted on PCB to sinusoidal
vibration for 15 minutes in each of 3
mutually perpendicular axis.
Durability. No evidence of physical damage. EIA-364-9.
Subject plug and jack to 750 mating
and unmating cycles at the rate of

inoperative.
Mating and unmating forces. Five pounds maximum for
unshielded plug and jack.
Eight pounds maximum for shielded
plug and jack.
EIA-364-13.
Measure force required to mate
plug and jack. Measure force
required to unmate plug and jack
with latch depressed.
Plug retention in jack. Plug shall not dislodge from jack. EIA-364-98.
Apply axial load of 20 pounds to
plug housing at a rate of 0.5 inch
per minute with plug mated in jack
and latch engaged.
Pull. Plug shall remain mated with no
evidence of damage.
Load cable in mated plug with a 17
pound pull in axial direction, rotate
plug housing 45 degrees from cable
axis, remove load.
See Figure 4.
Jack retention to PCB. Jack shall not dislodge from PCB.
