RADSOK®
RADSOK® technology is based upon a stamped and formed flat grid, uniquely twisted into a hyperbolic geometry to provide robust, high-density contact to the mating pin contact. This provides the high normal forces required for conductivity and provides a large conductive surface area. Correspondingly low voltage drop and low-temperature rise are also achieved while maintaining low insertion forces
Raptor
RAPTOR is Amphenol LTD’s new range of high-power, high voltage connectors for e-Flight e-Vtol and Hybrid applications. It provides PDIV free performance at an operating voltage of 2.0KV AC(RMS) at 35,000 ft making it ideal for Batteries, Generators, Motors & Power Distribution. The operating temperature is 200°C using the new TALON contact with a current-carrying capacity of up to 800A.
Raptor Feedthrough
The RAPTOR Feedthrough is engineered for High Voltage and High Current Systems in e-flight, e-VTOL, and Hybrid applications such as batteries, generators, motors & power distribution units and is ideal for
the termination of screened power cables. It is designed for applications where once the equipment is installed, it does not require frequent connection and disconnection.
Rectangular Connectors with Fiber Optic Termini
High-speed fiber optic transmission is available in rectangular connectors for use in advanced avionics systems. The optical performance of fiber optic termini is the same as termini used in circular connectors. LRM interconnects can have hybrid arrangements of fiber optics with Brush contacts, as well as other contact types.
Rectangular Connectors with High Speed Contacts
Offer several advantages for high data transfer rates, low power consumption, and excellent EMI compatibility. Variety of plated, aluminum shell styles available. Quadrax, Split Pair Quadrax, or Differential Twinax available. Board Level connectors can incorporate straight or PCB Tails right angle, or straight compliant tail contacts.
Reduced Flange Jam Nut Receptacles
The MIL-DTL-38999 Series III jam-nut style connector features a reduced flange design that saves space, weight, and reduces your footprint when used in PCB applications. More connectors are able to be fit on a box or board due to the reduced flange having a smaller diameter than a standard jam nut receptacle. 30% lighter than standard 38999/24 (w/o stand-offs).
Reflow Stable PCB Connectors
SV Microwave now offers a line of PCB connectors that feature an epoxy-based dielectric that keeps the connector dimensionally stable and flush to the board during the reflow process. Available in SMP, SMPM, and SMPS series.
Relay Sockets
Adaptation device between a Relay and a Cable harness, our relay sockets are widely used by European aircraft manufacturers.
RF and Mixed Signal Harnesses Overview
SV Microwave offers design, assembly and test services to support your harness needs including Mil-Aero, Commercial Space and Hi-Reliability applications.
Our J-STD certified harness technicians have experience manufacturing harnesses for some of the world's most challenging conditions including Low Earth Orbit, Military Aircraft and Industrial Test and Measurement.
RF Microwave Harnesses
We support the full spectrum of harness interfaces including
1. MIL-SPEC circular and rectangular connectors
2. D38999
3. ARINC
4. LRM
Scorpion Modular
Design your own connector with our Scorpion series! The Scorpion modular connector can be configured as a power connector, a signal connector, or both, and it offers nearly limitless combinations. Perfect to achieve that ideal blend of size, weight, and power (SWaP). Add options for blind mating, float mount, panel mount, and cable connector options, as well as integral locking systems.
Secure Locking R/A Cable Connectors
SV Microwave's secure locking QuarterBack® R/A cable connectors utilize a quarter turn bayonet style coupling nut with a locking feature for standard female SMP / SMPM interfaces. All SV QuarterBack® products are ideal for high vibration and test applications that require a large number of mating cycles. This newly expanded product line now offers cable connectors in a right angle orientation.
Series Five Connectors
The MIL-DTL-38999 series of connectors was born in the 1960’s and Amphenol has continued to innovate new features and capabilities. The new Series Five connector is the next evolutionary step in the impressive D38999 lineage. Combining all of the capabilities of the traditional 38999 style connector in a lighter, smaller, and more compact package to support the military and aerospace industry.
Signal Contacts
Featuring several terminations (Crimp, Solder, PC Tail, Compliant pins), the signal contacts are ideal for MIL-DTL-38999/EN3645/2M, SIM/EN4165, EN2997, ARINC600, or even relay sockets. They're in accordance with the latest standards (European - EN3155)
SJT Connectors
SJT connectors combine unique design features of the scoop-proof LJT series within standard mounting dimensions of JT types. Available in a wide range of shell sizes, finishes, insert arrangements, and accessories. Special adaptations of the SJT are available for hermetic and high-temperature applications. Compliance with European Specifications – PAN6433-2, LN29729, VG96912.
SMP and SMPM PCB Connectors
SV has just released a new line of high-density thru-hole and surface mount connectors. These connectors are ideal for high frequency printed circuit board applications where precision is key. Current configurations include male interfaces in the SMP and SMPM series. Take your system to the next level!
SMP and SMPM Spring Bullets
SV Microwave’s SMP and SMPM spring bullets guarantee maximum RF performance by eliminating gaps between the bullet and shroud during gang mating. Additionally, these spring loaded bullets have been designed for repeatable VSWR performance under all states of compression by solving radial misalignment issues when fully mated.
SMP/SMPM Fixed Bullets
SV Microwave offers a complete line of SMP and SMPM fixed bullets in a variety of lengths. Our newest fixed bullets start at a nominal length of .265" for SMP and .188" for SMPM. These additional lengths round out SV's fixed bullet offering and allow a system designer flexibility when integrating a board-to-board RF solution.
SMPS Spring Bullets
SV Microwave’s newest spring loaded bullet product line employs an SMPS RF interface to maximize density and high frequency in applications up to 32 GHz. These spring loaded bullets have been designed for repeatable RF performance under all states of compression by solving axial and radial misalignment issues when fully mated.
Solaris
Solaris is a small, plastic, easy-to-use rectangular connector designed specifically for low and medium power applications. Solaris’ spring-loaded slide lock mechanism is a snap to use - simply push to lock and slide to unlock. The slide lock provides convenient single-handed & tool-less mating, eliminating the Foreign Object Debris (FOD) found in typical screw mount D-Subs.
