Cable Adapters
Complete range of high-performance Cable Adapters. Simply choose the connectors you want along with the cable length you want, and we’ll make the adapter on-demand. Virtually any connector can be used, and although we offer a standard cable type, custom cables are always an option. The possibilities are endless.
Cable Glands and Cord Grips
Cable glands are available with Metric and PG threads for harsh environments and EX hazard locations. The liquid-tight cable glands come in either a UL94V-2 rated Nylon material or Nickel-plated brass materials. The cable glands are suitable for a wide range of applications including manufacturing machinery, measurement and control equipment, and automation and robotics.
Cable Separators
Cable Separators are used to help separate cable harnesses from one another, aiding in organizing cable routing throughout the aircraft. Available in either Nylon or PEEK, they maintain clearance between two parallel or crossing cable harnesses preventing wire abrasion. Nine different versions are available and they are qualified to Airbus standard ABS1144.
Cable Supports
Cable Supports are made to affix on an aircraft’s airframe, helping to secure and manage cable harnesses as they run throughout the aircraft body. They are offered in nylon and are designed for use in airframe, fuel tank, and engine applications. Available in various standard configurations and sizes, Amphenol Pcd also offers customized products to help meet specific customer requirements.
CapLock & PlugLock
Amphenol SOCAPEX has launched a series of locking accessories for 38999, RJFTV and USBFTV connectors and caps. These locking accessories
for connectors that help strengthen cybersecurity.
The series includes CapLock, PlugLock and Metal CapLock. These locks prevent manual unlocking of receptacles thereby ensuring additional security.
C.A.P. Series
The C.A.P. Series consists of a family of connectors that provide users easy access to standard communication and power ports, but in a ruggedized format that is easily integrated into aerospace or other demanding environments. The spring-loaded, 360-degree cover provides quick access to the front side/user port.
Cascade 1RU Bulkhead Panel
The Cascade Panel is a 1RU chassis with spaces for 4x custom patch plates at a total density of 96 LCs in a single rack unit. The Cascade Panel has a sliding tray that brings the adapters forward, allowing for easier
access when performing moves, adds, or changes. Its simple,
streamlined design provides a balance of density and usability
when connecting multiple LC or MPO connections.
CC1339 Light Clamps
Amphenol Air LB France's CC1339 Light clamps provide routing, support, and fixing for cable harnesses of various diameters (5 to 48 mm). Robust and flexible, they absorb shocks, vibrations and offer unequaled protection of bundles against pinching, crushing, or mechanical wear. Derived from legacy ABS1339 standard clamps, they offer up to 18% more weight savings.
CC5516 Light Clamps
Improved version of the CC5516 standard series, these Amphenol Air LB France's lightweight versions offer additional weight saving (up to 24% more!). Designed to keep the cable harnesses or hydraulic pipes securely maintained on a structure, they are easy-to-install, robust, flexible, and provide safety over time vs. metallic clamps. Stacking mount possible.
CC5516 Series
CC5516 series is a new line of lightweight Cable Clamps, in composite and silicone, derived from the legacy NSA5516 metallic clamps. They are designed to keep cable harnesses or hydraulic pipes securely maintained on a structure. They are closed and fixed on the structure by screw (not supplied), in one simple operation.
CC5516 Series Clamps
Lightweight alternative to metallic cable clamps, Amphenol Air LB France's CC5516 series is a line of composite and silicone clamps offering significant weight saving and safety over time. Designed to keep the cable harnesses or hydraulic pipes securely maintained on a structure, they are easy to install, robust and flexible.
Ceramic Injection Molding
Amphenol's CIM process uses ceramic zirconium to provide a scratch and wear-resistant surface to components such as mobile phone camera decoration and side keys. The CIM material provides additional durability and strength to your products. We have applied our Metal Injection Molding (MIM) experience of large volume runs to CIM to create a hi-tech material process.
CNC Machining
State-of-the-art machine with abilities to machine, coat, inspect, and assemble mechanical solutions for our internal and external customers. Our capabilities include Six 4-Axis Mazak machines, 5-Axis Mazak Integrex, water-jet, and press brake, CMM, vacuum fixturing for thin-walled heat-sinks.
Coaxial Contacts
Reliable interconnection and continued performance in size 8, 12, & 16 crimp termination style. Available for use in MIL DTL 38999 Series I, II, and III Connectors. Also available in PC Tail.
Coaxial Fixed Attenuators
Amphenol RF attenuators are designed to offer flat attenuation over the designated frequency range and feature a microwave grade resistor that consistently reduces power. Hex flats on the body allow this attenuator to be easily torqued to the mating connector.
Coaxial Terminators and Loads
Amphenol RF terminators are available in many common series and genders including; 1.0/2.3, APC-3.5, APC-5.5, BNC, F-type, HD-BNC, N-Type, QMA, and SMA. Amphenol RF terminators reliably prevent RF signals from being reflected along the transmission line to reduce interference.
Compact Universal Enclosures
Compact Universal Enclosures were designed around the principle of “flexibility.” These versatile enclosures may be wall, pole, strand or pedestal-mounted and configured to meet a variety of fiber, copper, or coaxial distribution applications. With a universal backplane and interchangeable feed and drop cable port plates, they are especially efficient at meeting FTTX deployment challenges.
Composite Mounting Platforms (CPAD)
Composite Pads (CPAD) are economical alternatives for poured in place and pre-cast concrete pads used to mount cabinets, generators, electric vehicle chargers, and other outdoor enclosures. They provide a flat, stable mounting surface and below-grade slack storage. One-piece and modular bay designs are available. Advanced composite material construction is both lightweight and rugged.
Composite Self-Closing Caps
For PT/451 Series, RJ/USB Field & Amphenol Sine RT360.
Concentric Twinax Contacts
The size 8, 10, and 12 concentric twinax contacts were developed for applications that require high-performance interconnect characteristics in multi-pin connectors. Ideal for this application need is the high-performance D38999 Series III connector with its fully scoop-proof feature of recessed pins. The concentric Twinax contact is crimp terminable to twisted shielded cable.
