TACBEAM
Amphenol introduces the TACBeam Series into the harsh environment product portfolio. This legacy hermaphroditic fiber optic lens connector, facilitates the inter-connection of multiple identical fiber optic cable assemblies known as daisy chaining, thus eliminating the need for polarising the assemblies and the use of in-line adapters.
TacBeam as per VG95319-100; -101
TacBeam is a hermaphroditic lens connector, insensitive to dust and dirt. This connector is qualified as per MIL-DTL-83526/20 and 21. In addition, it is approved as per VG95319-100; -101, and is thus suitable for outdoor applications. A marine bronze version is also available (according to VG95319-102).
TACBeam® – MIL-DTL-83526
AFSI offers a MIL-DTL-83526/20 & /21 qualified expanded beam rugged fiber optic connector for military and industrial applications. Since the lenses do not physically contact, there is no wear on the termini, which allows the connector to be mated and demated thousands of times without affecting optical performance.
TAC Connectors
TAC Connectors are designed and manufactured to the exacting specifications of MIL-DTL-55116 requirements at half the size of the standard connectors. They are the ideal choice to reduce size and weight and still maintain many of the same performance benefits wherever an M55116 connector is needed on a newly designed system.
Telephone Plugs and Jacks
Manufacturer and supplier of airborne audio connectors, see MIL-DTL-9177. Our special ruggedized design has been the industry standard on military and commercial helmets and headsets for many years. We offer a number of connector options for different mounting styles, switch functions, and soldier attachments.
Temperature Sensors
With more than 70 years of experience in the development, design, and manufacture of high-quality sensors, Thermometrics offers one of the most comprehensive ranges of temperature measurement and sensor products in the world today – NTC Thermistors, PTC Thermistors, Infrared (IR) Sensors, Current Limiters, Temperature Standards, and Temperature Sensor Assemblies.
Temper-Grip
New high current technology alternative to our RadSok socket. Temper Grip contacts increase ampacity up to 40%, which increases the value of your system or downsize cable size and space on a panel. Temper-Grip contacts will far outlast the temperature extremes of the standard connectors they can go into.
Termination Tools for RF Connectors
Amphenol RF offers a full line of termination tooling to meet your specific production requirements. All tools meet Amphenol’s stringent design and quality requirements and provide a consistent and reliable crimp each and every time, thereby ensuring the integrity of the connector termination.
Terrapin
Terrapin SCE2 is a range of miniature circular push-pull and latched connectors. Featuring an optional locking mechanism, multiple shell sizes with up to 37 contacts, and suitability for overmoulding, Terrapin SCE2 is the preferred choice for miniature connectors in military and other harsh environment applications.
TFOCA-III® Fiber Optic Connectors
The TFOCA-III® series of 6 & 24-channel fiber optic connectors are ideal for environmentally harsh conditions. The TFOCA-III® design utilizes the latest technology in fiber optic connectivity by incorporating industry-standard physical contact ceramic ferrules and alignment sleeves.
TFOCA-II® 12-Channel Fiber Optic Connectors
The TFOCA-II® 12-ch. connector, designed and patented by AFSI, is ideal for environmentally harsh conditions and its design takes advantage of the latest technology by utilizing industry-standard physical contact ceramic ferrules. The TFOCA-II® connector is designed for minimal maintenance in the field, and its removable end cap allows direct access to the alignment sleeve and termini.
TFOCA-II® 4-Channel Fiber Optic Connectors
AFSI, in collaboration with the United States Army CECOM, designed the “next generation” deployable fiber optic connector for the emerging “knowledge-centric warfare communication” requirements of the future battlefield. The heart of the TFOCA-II® centers on the sealed free-floating termini which enables the connectors to seal against high humidity and moisture conditions.
TFOCA-II® Ruggedized Media Converter (ARCH Series)
Amphenol Fiber Systems International (AFSI) offers the ARCH Series TFOCA-II® Ruggedized Media Converter to provide optical-electrical (O-E) and electrical-optical (E-O) conversion for harsh environments.
