Deutsch Autosport AS 2-Way Plug — Socket (Female) — Red Key (N)

The Deutsch Autosport AS 2-Way Plug Socket (Female) Connector with Red (N) Keying Insert — SKU: AS610-02SN is a professional MIL-spec-grade Deutsch Autosport AS series connector for 2-circuit compact sensor, switch, and single-actuator separable joins in race cars and high-performance vehicles across Norway, Sweden, and Denmark. Configured as a free, cable-mounted plug half that mates with a fixed flange or inline receptacle — the movable, harness-side component that disconnects for component removal, harness separation, and servicing.

Deutsch Autosport AS 2-Way — 2-circuit Circuit Configuration

The Deutsch Autosport AS series is the professional standard circular connector format for motorsport wiring — aluminium alloy shell, gold-plated contacts, positive push-pull locking, and full MIL-spec environmental sealing for race-condition reliability. The 2-circuit configuration is used for the most compact circuit count in the AS series — for simple 2-wire sensor connections, on/off switch interfaces, and minimal-circuit separable joins in professional motorsport builds throughout Scandinavia. Smallest shell, lightest weight — ideal for simple sensor and switch removable joins where minimal connector bulk is essential.

Socket (Female) — 2-Circuit Contact Array

This is the socket half of the 2-way AS plug pair. Two gold-plated socket contacts receive both incoming pin contacts — the receptacle half completing the 2-circuit path across this compact separable join. The corresponding pin half of the same circuit count and key colour completes the mated pair — both halves are required. AS contacts are ordered separately; select the correct contact part number for your wire gauge and current requirements.

Red Key (N) — Keying Position and Mis-Mate Prevention

Red N is the neutral (non-keyed) specification — the correct choice when only a single 2-circuit AS plug is used at this separation point and no adjacent same-size connector creates a mis-mate risk. An N-keyed half mates with any other N-keyed half of the same circuit count, keeping the connector specification simple and straightforward for single-pair 2-circuit AS applications. Red N is also commonly used on initial harness prototype builds before the final keying strategy is confirmed, on harnesses where each AS connector is a unique circuit count (eliminating any possibility of mis-mating by design), and on any motorsport harness build in Norway, Sweden, or Denmark where keyed mis-mate prevention between same-circuit-count connectors is not required at this particular separation point.

Plug Configuration — The Movable Cable-Mounted Connector Half

The AS plug is the free, cable-mounted half of the connector pair — it does not mount to a panel or chassis surface. The plug travels with the removable component or sub-harness and mates into a fixed receptacle (flange-mounted or inline) to complete the electrical circuit when the assembly is connected. This makes the plug the correct specification for engine-side harness connectors that must be disconnected for engine removal, dashboard harness sub-connectors that follow a removable dashboard assembly, removable subframe harness joins, and any other separable point where one connector half must be freely movable with a removable vehicle component.

The 2-circuit AS plug is used for 2-circuit compact sensor, switch, and single-actuator separable joins across race cars and performance vehicles in Norway, Sweden, and Denmark. The plug’s free, unmounted format allows the harness builder to route the cable bundle freely from the removable component to the mating point without any chassis mounting constraint — then mate the plug directly into the fixed receptacle when the component is installed. The push-pull positive locking mechanism provides secure, vibration-resistant engagement that holds through race conditions while allowing intentional disconnection at every service interval.
