Are there quality differences between different brands of d-sub connectors that I should worry about? I purchased a couple of d-sub 9 pin solder cup connectors made by Pan Pacific at a local electronics supplier:

Would these be acceptable or would any of you recommend a certain brand and supplier?
Also, what is the rated current capacity per pin? I'm considering using these to hook up a Dynon RV-7 autopilot servo (to make disconnection easy if I ever need to). Is this acceptable or would any of you recommend another way to hook the servo up?
thanks,
jason

I have had rotten luck with the Radio Shack metalized D-sub shells.  They fall apart quite easily.

But, why should that be surprising?

Yes, but it doesn't involve the connector or pins.  Almost every RS plastic metalized hood has fallen apart.  It cracks at the screw bosses.
