Perfect for mission-critical systems requiring compact, lightweight, and robust RF cable solutions in extreme temperature and vibration conditions.
Shielded Coaxial Contact
These contacts are required for high-frequency interconnection. High-speed Coax contacts within a connector provide shielding protection in order to eliminate interferences from outside electrical sources, and in many cases, the RF/Microwave performance needed in the circuitry of many applications.
Shielded Edge Launch PCB Connectors
Engineered for environments sensitive to EMI and cross talk, SV Microwave’s new Shielded Multiport connectors deliver outstanding performance with industry-leading isolation and crosstalk suppression—achieving 70 dB min at 30 GHz. This exceptional electrical separation between ports ensures ultra-clean signal transmission, setting a new benchmark compared to traditional coax PCB multiports.
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.
Signal Contacts
Featuring several terminations (Crimp, Solder, PC Tail, Compliant pins), the signal contacts are ideal for MIL-DTL-38999/EN3645/2M, SIM/EN4165, EN2997, ARINC600, or even relay sockets. They're in accordance with the latest standards (European - EN3155)
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 Connectors Series 3
Scoop-proof, modular and rectangular, Amphenol Air LB France's EN4165 / SIM series 3 consists of shells and modules, which together create an integrated solution for signal and power. Flexible and easy-to-use, SIM is suited for a wide range of applications. Available in metallic versions for robust applications, SIM are comparable to U.S. MIL-STD-810 in performance.
SIM Marine Bronze
Amphenol Air LB France's Marine Bronze SIMs are derived from the legacy EN4165 metallic connectors. It consists of shells in Bronze and overmolded EN4165 modules, which together create an integrated solution for signal and power. With 2000 hours of salt spray withstanding, Marine Bronze SIM connectors are suited for a wide range of Marine applications.
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.
