Deutsch Autosport AS Mini 3-Way Plug — Socket (Female) — Orange Key (C)
The Deutsch Autosport AS Mini 3-Way Plug Socket (Female) Connector with Orange (C) Keying Insert — SKU: AS607-98SC is a professional MIL-spec-grade motorsport connector for 3-circuit harness separable connections in race cars and performance vehicles across Norway, Sweden, and Denmark. This socket half is the receptacle side — the gold-plated socket terminals receive the incoming pin contacts from the corresponding pin (pin) half, completing all 3 circuit connections when the connector is engaged and locked. Configured as an plug connector — free-hanging cable-mounted plug — mates with a fixed inline or flange-mounted receptacle.
Deutsch Autosport AS Mini — 3-circuit Inline Connector
The AS Mini shell is the most compact aluminium format in the Deutsch Autosport circular connector family — significantly smaller and lighter than the standard AS series shell. Despite its reduced dimensions, the AS Mini delivers the same MIL-spec contact interfaces, positive push-pull locking, and environmental sealing as the standard AS series. The 3-way configuration provides the appropriate circuit density for this motorsport application. The 3-circuit AS inline is used for motorsport harness separable joins requiring 3 circuits at a single connector interface.
Orange Key (C) — The third keying position in the deutsch as system
As the third keying position in the Deutsch AS system, the Orange C key is the third unique key assignment in a multi-connector harness featuring three or more 3-way AS inline connectors at the same separation point. Orange C is the third key assignment — used on harnesses where three or more connectors of the same circuit count are needed. Common in complex ECU main looms, PDM harnesses, and full race car harness builds where multiple same-size AS inline joins are required between the engine bay and chassis. Three-key harness arrangements are typically found in the most complex full race car loom builds — where a single engine-to-chassis separation point must carry more circuits than two 3-way connectors alone can provide.
Contact Type — Socket (Female)
This listing is for the socket half of the 3-way AS Mini plug pair — the receptacle contact half — the socket terminals receive and make contact with the incoming pin terminals when the connector is mated, completing the electrical circuit across the separable join. The corresponding pin half of the same circuit count and key colour is required to complete the mated connector pair. AS Mini contacts are ordered separately — select the correct contact part number for your wire gauge and current requirements.
