Series II Sockets
SV Microwave’s Series II D38999/2M SMPM and SMPS socket contacts are engineered for use in connector shells requiring Series II socket configurations. Available in Size 12 (SMPM) and 16 (SMPS) for .047" and .085" cable, these contacts feature a shorter body length than Series I, III, and IV socket contacts, due to the lower profile connector shells.
SF-047
The SF-047 is a ruggedized, small-diameter coaxial cable engineered for reliable performance in harsh environments. Ideal for aerospace, defense, and industrial applications, it offers excellent durability, flexibility, and high-frequency signal integrity. Perfect for mission-critical systems requiring compact, lightweight, and robust RF cable solutions in extreme temperature and vibration conditions.
Shielded Edge Launch PCB Connectors
Engineered for environments sensitive to EMI and cross talk, SV Microwave’s new Shielded Multiport connectors deliver outstanding performance with industry-leading isolation and crosstalk suppression—achieving 70 dB min at 30 GHz. This exceptional electrical separation between ports ensures ultra-clean signal transmission, setting a new benchmark compared to traditional coax PCB multiports.
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.
SMP and SMPM Edge Lock PCB Connectors
SV Microwave’s newly expanded Edge Lock PCB Connector introduces small form, push-on SMP and SMPM connectors. Designed for high-frequency performance up to 65 GHz, these edge launch connectors deliver minimal Insertion Loss and low reflections without burdensome assembly techniques for reflow. Their fixture-less, conical-leg design ensures secure PCB edge retention.
SMP and SMPM Multiport PCB Connectors
SV Microwave’s new two-, four-, and eight-port PCB surface-mount connectors are designed for high-frequency, high-density PCB applications where minimizing crosstalk is essential. Available in SMP, and SMPM RF interface configurations, these connectors deliver reliable performance for demanding designs. Elevate your system’s capabilities today!
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.
SMPM-XT RF Interconnects
SMPM-XT RF Interconnects are designed to maintain reliable electrical performance even when mechanical tolerances vary. Featuring an extended interface, these SMPM interconnects accommodate a greater degree of axial tolerance, ensuring secure and repeatable board-to-board connections up to 12 GHz. Featuring fixed-length bullets and single, two-, and four-port mating halves.
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.
SMPS VITA 67.3 Gen2
Amphenol SV Microwave’s SMPS VITA 67.3 Gen2 product line is the next evolution of our high-performance RF interconnects for embedded computing systems. Building upon the Gen1 platform, these optimized designs enhance compatibility, reliability, and ease of integration across all port configurations.
