Octomax 1G26 Contacts
A new generation of Ethernet contacts compatible with Size 8 quadrax cavities for D38999, EN3645, EN4165 connectors. It's the right choice for ethernet Cat 5e and AFDX applications. One Octomax 1G26 is equivalent to two quadrax. It fits in a standard size 8 quadrax cavity. The contacts are available in crimp and PC Tails version.
Octonet Contacts
Size 8 Octonet Contacts for MIL-DTL-38999 Series III connectors. Available in size 8 crimp termination style, including PC tails. Can be installed in existing size 8 Quadrax cavities. Meets performance specifications of CAT-6A cable. Overall higher bandwidth than standard CAT5E Quadrax-supports up to 4.0 Gbps per pair. 10G Ethernet compliant.
Optik-D
"The Optik-D™ fibre-optic connector solution is for designers who need to terminate optical cable in harsh or challenging environments. It is an ARINC 801 conforming fibre-optic connector designed to be used with the Positronic Combo D-Subminiature family. Optik-D is more cost-effective than D38999 or ARINC 600-based systems and is compatible with ARINC 801 products from other manufacturers.
PANEL MOUNT BULKHEAD RF CABLE ASSEMBLIES
SV Microwave just released standard SMA and 2.92mm female bulkhead cable assemblies used to transmit a signal through a panel using a single mounting hole. The bulkhead connector style allows installation through a box or panel without the use of screws. The fastening nut is installed around the front of the connector on the outside of the box or panel.
PCB Contacts
PCB Tail contacts are best for applications that have limited space and connectors that are attached to printed circuit boards. Three standard tail lengths (.15 inches, .25 inches, .35 inches). Custom designs available. Gold plated or pre-tinned.
Pegasus
Pegasus is Amphenol Pcd’s latest innovation in small, lightweight, rugged connectors. Designed for use in harsh environments, Pegasus builds on the successful Luminus Series Aerospace connector with the addition of EMI shielding. Tests show between 40db and 60db of attenuation, depending on frequency. RoHS and REACH compliant.
Pegasus High Speed
Pegasus High Speed provides exceptional performance in tight spaces, with a svelte shell size 8 (0.512”) outer diameter. With the explosive growth in Ethernet-enabled devices (IOT), this is size and configuration is particularly suited for endpoint applications, such as individual avionics sensors, panel-mounted units, seat back, and wall-mounted displays and monuments.
PhaseTrack®-047
PT-047 is a low-loss, highly flexible, foam-core micro coaxial cable. Originally designed for space satellite programs, this high-performance cable has many applications across multiple markets.
Power Contacts
Amphenol has a large experience in power generation contact and has developed some technologies dedicated to power in order to reduce heating, save space, as well as increase durability.
Power Distribution Units (PDU)
Our Power Distribution Units (PDU) ensure advanced load balancing, surge protection, and seamless integration of crucial systems, with control and diagnostics via CAN bus, RS-485, and/or Ethernet, offering a robust foundation for military operations in challenging conditions from 28V to 600V.
