R-VPX Evolution 2.0
Qualified to data rates in excess of 32Gb/s. Fastest VITA 46.30 connectors in the world.
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.
SD308
For Sea, Air or Land, these connectors are SEALED!
Amphenol’s SD308 Sealed D-Subminiature Connectors are available in the full range of standard density and hi-density insert arrangements, pin and socket contacts. These connectors are supplied with fixed screw-machine contacts and are available
in Solder Cup, Straight PCB, and Right Angle PCB terminations.
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.
Secure Locking SMP/SMPM RF Cable Assemblies
SV Microwave's secure locking QuarterBack® RF cable assemblies utilize a quarter turn bayonet style coupling nut with a locking feature for standard SMP / SMPM interfaces and standard female and male bulkhead SMPM interfaces. All SV QuarterBack® products are ideal for high vibration and test applications that require a large number of mating cycles.
Semi-rigid RF Cable Capabilities
SV Microwave has the ability to build your semi-rigid cable assembly in-house to precisely the dimensions and bend configuration you need. Our advanced CNC cable bender machine results in highly accurate bent configurations with typical tolerances on linear dimensions at ±.030".
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)
SIHD
The SIHD connector combines excellent electrical performances with high contact density within a
robust housing, which can withstand extreme environmental conditions. In addition, the lateral displacement capability allows the use of thermal clamps for heat management, as well as a more relaxed positional tolerance on the backplane.
SIM QR (Quick Release)
Based on legacy EN4165 connectors, Amphenol Air LB France's SIM QR features a quick disconnection system. Fitted with modules selected from an extensive range of overmoulded EN4165 / SIM modules providing multiple contacts sizes and arrangements offering best-in-class dielectric and sealing performances. For Power & Signal contacts.
SIM Splices for Mil/Aero
Amphenol Air LB France's modular composite splice provides a reliable and simple connection between two EN4165 / SIM modules. Available with or without cable clamp, and/or flange, the SIM splice can be fixed on/under a structure or Feed-through. It can be fitted with the whole range of EN4165 / SIM modules.
SMASH
The SMASH connector offers extremely high robustness where signal integrity is required. Based on an
aluminum shell with 1, 2, or 3 bays, the SMASH connector can house up to 450 contacts.
The chevron grid pattern provides high contact density for advanced electronics packaging. The metallic shell is equipped with grounding, guide pins, and keying devices to ensure mechanical reliability.
SMPM/SMPS VITA 67.3 RF Terminations
This line of VITA 67.3 contact terminations prevents RF signals from reflecting back and causing damage to your embedded system. Now available for both SMPM and SMPS series. SV Microwave’s VITA product line is the latest addition to the RF / coaxial section of the VPX platform.
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.
SMP Spring Bullets
SV Microwave’s SMP 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.
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.
Solderless Mount Micro-D
This standard Micro-D interface connector is equipped with Amphenol surface mount clip technology. It is fully intermateable with standard M83513 connectors but provides a reduced footprint allowing for increased contact density. It eliminates the need for washing and soldering processes saving time and cost in PCB assembly. It allows for double-sided PCB design for more components.
Space Attenuators
SV Microwave has developed a line of Select on Test Space Attenuators that are designed to fine tune the RF power levels of microwave circuits in satellites. This product line features SMP Male-to-Male and Male-to-Female configurations that are rated to work through 40 GHz at a variety of attenuation values.
