Board Level Connectors
Amphenol SOCAPEX offers a wide range of board to board (PCB) & board to cable connectors. Our solutions cover different types of technologies using copper and/or fiber optic are proposed as high pin count connector or high speed solutions. Our connectors are designed to meet performances of main standards as MIL-DTL-55302, MIL-DTL-83513 and VITA (either VITA 46 or VITA 66).
Board-to-Board RF Connectors
Amphenol RF offers a variety of board-to-board solutions engineered to maximize radial and axial float, eliminating the need for cables between the boards and simplifying designs to eliminate assembly errors.
Boeing Certified BACC 5015
The BACC5015 connectors are qualified to Boeing Specifications to satisfy general-purpose requirements and unique product challenges for shielding, environmental sealing, fluid resistance, and vibration. Rear-Release crimp contacts with a retention clip. Sealed to withstand moisture, condensation, vibration, and flash-over. Multiple arrangements are available for power, signal, or mixed.
Breakaway Plugs and Jacks
Watertight, breakaway connectors are designed to meet severe environmental conditions. They are watertight, with wiping-action contacts that self-clean. Shielded versions are available and termination is either solder or insulation-piercing, which is field installable. Miniature versions are also available.
Bullet Alignment Tool
SV Microwave has the ability to create custom alignment tools that easily solve for radial alignment in multiport board-to-board solutions. This tool can be configured for any number of ports and a variety of RF interfaces like: SMP, SMPM and SMPS and more. Simply mate your desired bullet(s) and multiport together, then place our custom tool over the top to ensure all are perfectly aligned.
Busbars
Amphenol Air LB France's busbars provide a means of power distribution between power generator boxes, terminal blocks, and smaller terminal block interconnects. Bus bars are available in various standard sizes and shapes as well as in custom designs. Bus bars present high mechanical resistance and are resistant to high temperatures.
Cable and Wire Harnesses
Amphenol Borisch Technologies has a long history of manufacturing complex cable and wire harnesses for a broad range of harsh environment defense and aerospace applications. Our capabilities include over-molding, custom backshells, unique cable transitions, braiding for EMI/RFI and mechanical abrasion production, rapid prototyping, live-layup, test, X-ray, and custom fixtures.
Cable Separators
Cable Separators are used to help separate cable harnesses from one another, aiding in organizing cable routing throughout the aircraft. Available in either Nylon or PEEK, they maintain clearance between two parallel or crossing cable harnesses preventing wire abrasion. Nine different versions are available and they are qualified to Airbus standard ABS1144.
Cable Supports
Cable Supports are made to affix on an aircraft’s airframe, helping to secure and manage cable harnesses as they run throughout the aircraft body. They are offered in nylon and are designed for use in airframe, fuel tank, and engine applications. Available in various standard configurations and sizes, Amphenol Pcd also offers customized products to help meet specific customer requirements.
C.A.P. Series
The C.A.P. Series consists of a family of connectors that provide users easy access to standard communication and power ports, but in a ruggedized format that is easily integrated into aerospace or other demanding environments. The spring-loaded, 360-degree cover provides quick access to the front side/user port.
