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
Rectangular Backshells
Amphenol Canada can provide backshells for all our standard and custom products. From Arinc style to Micro-D. A wide variety of exit ports are available from EMI to cable clamp as well as different plating and mounting options.
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).
Relay Sockets
Adaptation device between a Relay and a Cable harness, our relay sockets are widely used by European aircraft manufacturers.
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.
SIAL
SIAL is a modular high-density interconnection system that has the capability to mix signal and coax contacts. The contact technology developed for this connector allows the use of thermal clamps. With 3 sizes of modules, the SIAL connectors provide the arrangement needed, from 18 to 392 contacts.
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.
SJT as per VG96912
SJT circular connectors with bayonet lock, for crimp, single solder and wire wrap contacts, approved as per VG96912, PAN6433-2, JN 1003. The connectors in this series feature 100% contact protection (scoop-proof). They are also available in marine bronze (VG96912 version B) and zinc-tin (VG96912 version J).
