The present invention is directed to a gladhand connector having multiple ports and an integrated filter. The connector has a base that includes an air hose connector clamp on a first surface, and a first access port extending from the first surface toward a second surface, and a second access port on a bottom surface. The access ports are in fluid communication with an intermediate conduit configured to direct air received from an air hose through the housing. The connector also comprises a receptacle adjacent the first access port and in fluid communication with one of the access ports. The receptacle is configured to receive a pressure sensitive, removable and replaceable filter assembly that is configured to filter debris. The filter assembly is displaceable by air pressure of received air. The connector further comprises a mounting bracket configured to be attached to a vehicle. 1.
