Deutsch Autosport AS 29-Way Plug — Socket (Female) — Red Key (N)
The Deutsch Autosport AS 29-Way Plug Socket (Female) Connector with Red (N) Keying Insert — SKU: AS624-29PN is a professional MIL-spec-grade Deutsch Autosport AS series connector for medium-high-density ECU sub-harness joins, complex PDM wiring interfaces, and multi-circuit motorsport loom separable points in race cars and high-performance vehicles across Norway, Sweden, and Denmark. As a plug connector, the 29-way AS is a free, cable-mounted plug half for complex ECU sub-loom and PDM circuit separation points requiring exactly 29 circuits.
Deutsch Autosport AS 29-Way — Series Design and Circuit Application
The Deutsch Autosport AS series is the professional standard circular connector format for motorsport wiring — featuring an aluminium alloy shell machined to MIL-spec tolerances, gold-plated contact interfaces for consistent low-resistance electrical performance across the connector’s service life, and a positive push-pull locking mechanism that holds secure under sustained race vibration and rapid connector cycling at service intervals. The 29-way AS fills the gap between the 26-way and the larger 32 or 37-way — providing additional circuits over the 26-way without stepping up to the larger shell of the 32-way range.
Socket (Female) — 29-Circuit Contact Array
This listing is the socket half of the 29-way AS plug pair. Twenty-nine socket contacts receive twenty-nine incoming pin contacts — the receptacle half completing the full circuit complement of this high-density motorsport harness separable join. The corresponding pin half of the same circuit count and key colour is required to complete the mated connector pair — both halves must be ordered to form a functional separable join. 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 correct specification when only a single 29-circuit AS plug is used at this separation point — where no adjacent same-size connector creates a mis-mate risk. An N-keyed plug half mates with any other N-keyed half of the same circuit count, keeping the connector specification simple and correct for single-pair 29-circuit AS plug applications. Red N is the standard default for standalone plug connections across professional motorsport builds in Norway, Sweden, and Denmark.
Plug Configuration — The Movable, Cable-Mounted Connector Half
The AS plug configuration is a free, cable-mounted connector half — it does not mount to a panel or chassis surface. Instead, the plug is the movable, harness-side half that disconnects from a fixed receptacle (either a flange-mounted panel connector or a corresponding inline half) to allow component removal, harness separation, and servicing. The plug carries the cable bundle from the removable component or sub-harness and mates into the fixed chassis-side or loom-side receptacle when the system is assembled.
The 29-way AS plug is used for 29-circuit ECU and PDM complex interface removable joins in race cars and performance vehicles across Norway, Sweden, and Denmark. The plug format is specified wherever one connector half must be freely movable — for example, at engine removal points where the engine-side harness plug disconnects from the chassis-side flange, at removable dashboard assemblies where the instrument harness plug mates into a fixed bulkhead connector, and at any harness separation point where the plug side follows a removable component when it is extracted from the vehicle.
Unlike flange or inline connectors that create a two-sided free connection, the AS plug is always the movable half in a plug-to-receptacle pair — providing the connector architecture needed for clean, repeatable component removal and installation across the race service life of the vehicle.
