COTS Products Customizations
SV Microwave offers a flexible approach to customizing our COTS products to meet unique customer needs. Our applications and design engineering teams routinely make minor adjustments to standard parts-such as lengthening flanges, adjusting retention features, or altering PCB connector lengths—to support specific design requirements. Below are some examples.
CQ Connectors
CQ Connectors are aerospace-grade, quick-disconnect rectangular connectors based on the standard D-Subminiature (MIL-DTL-24308) footprint. Featuring a unique push-button locking mechanism that eliminates the need for tools and screws, they are designed for rapid installation, blind-mating, and Foreign Object Debris (FOD) prevention in mission-critical aviation and defense applications.
Cryo Semi Rigid Assemblies
Amphenol CDI’s cryogenic semi‑rigid cable assemblies are engineered for precision, stability, and ultra‑low‑temperature performance, delivering reliable signal integrity for quantum computing, scientific instrumentation, aerospace, and advanced electronic systems. Built with robust materials, rugged construction, and flexible configuration options—including customizable connectors, lengths, etc.
CSLT Connectors
The CSLT is a quick coupling connector for use in Avionics systems, which can be used with PC tail and solder cup contacts in the receptacle and standard AS39029 size 20 contacts in the plug. This connector can be polarized in six different positions. The bayonet post design on this quick coupling connector is just an example of the capabilities we have available for your custom interconnect solutions.
CTOL
CTOL series are robust optical connectors for the rapid deployment of high-speed transmission links under harsh environments. The hermaphroditic mating makes it possible to “daisy chain” cable assemblies without using any interconnect adapters. The specific lens design guarantees a large beam diameter and a low loss connection, less sensitivity to dirt and dust.
CTOS
CTOS is an expanded beam fiber optic connector available in singlemode and multimode. Designed for gloved handling and blind mating in the most extreme conditions, features include up to 4 channels, a hermaphroditic design, a protective window with contactless transmission, and qualification in accordance with NATO/STANAG4290 norms.
C-Type USB Connector
Amphenol LTW offers a comprehensive range of rugged USB Type-C connectors delivering a high data transmission rate of up to 10 Gbps and superior power charging up to 5A current. Designed in various form factors with multiple termination options make it ideal to fulfill industrial harsh application【Quick Guide: https://amphenolltw.com/down.php?supp_download=111】
Current Sensors
Piher Sensing Systems designs and manufacturers current sensors based on contactless technology for accurate measurement of currents in automotive battery management and motor control applications.
Piher’s precision current sensors improve motor or solenoid control applications and grid monitoring addressing the needs of both Tier 1 suppliers and OEMs.
D38999 Connectors with Coaxial, Concentric Twinax, and Triax Contacts
MIL-DTL-38999 connectors are ideally suited for shielded contacts for high-performance, high-speed interconnection applications. Insert arrangements can incorporate: coax (sizes 8, 12, and 16); twinax (sizes 8 and 12); and triax contacts (sizes 8, 10, and 12).
D38999 Contact Cable Assemblies
Amphenol SV Microwave offers high-frequency BMA and SMPM D38999 cabled RF contacts (size 8, 12 & 16) to SMA male connectors on Ø.085 and Ø.141 cable types that populate standard D38999 circular connectors. These fixed-length cable assemblies allow you to expand the use of the standard D38999 circular connector to incorporate microwave transmission lines.
