Make connections quickly and reliably with this breakout board, which brings every pin of its DB78HD connector out to screw terminals. This product is available with both male and female connectors.
This breakout board is perfect for production applications as well as experimentation and prototype work. It is helpful for working with I/O cards, Data Aquisition (DAQ) devices, and other devices that use a DB-78HD
connector.
Technically, the correct term for a DB78HD connector is DD78, but that term is not commonly used.
A breakout board is sometimes referred to as a "transition module", "terminal board", "terminal block", "breakout box", "breakout adapter", "terminator", or "interface module".

Mounting Options
These products are available in two different mounting variants. Product numbers ending with -DIN come
with DIN clips already installed and ready to snap onto 35mm or 32mm DIN rail. Product numbers ending with -FT
have stick-on rubber feet installed on the bottom side, allowing for benchtop use or panel mounting. For panel mounting, we suggest
1/4" nylon standoffs under the mounting holes, and #6 screws.
