Connectors
Amphenol has been designing and manufacturing electrical and electronic connectors since the company’s inception in 1932. For nearly a century, we’ve been helping customers transmit power, data and signal in the harshest environments, from subsea applications to the outer reaches of space and everywhere in between. Our wide array of electrical and electronic connectors come in multiple form factors and are designed to meet the latest market needs including high power, high speeds, size and weight reduction, EMI shielding, hermeticity, high pressure and improved board retention. Amphenol also offers a broad portfolio of contact styles, termination types, mating styles, connector geometries and environmentally-friendly RoHS plating.

AirMax® Power Connectors
Hard Metric High Power connectors are a perfect complement to Amphenol's ExaMAX®, AirMax®, ZipLine®, and Millipacs® signal connectors. These power connectors mount alongside their signal counterparts and are used in applications where bulk current is delivered by backplane or midplane to power-consuming components on a mating daughter card.
AirMax VS2® High-Speed Backplane Connector
AirMax VS2® connectors provide a migration path from AirMax VS® for speeds up to 20Gb/s, providing a margin of safety for typical 802.3ap system performance with the flexibility of an open pin field design. The connectors leverage AirMax VS® and VSe® design features and technology to achieve improved signal integrity and mechanical attributes compared to AirMax VS® connectors.
AirMax VSe® High-Speed Backplane Connector
HIGH SPEED HARDMETRIC CONNECTOR FOR BACKPLANE WITH ENHANCED PERFORMANCE
AirMax VSe® connectors address the industry needs for high bandwidth applications requiring a scalable migration path to 25Gb/s data rate. AirMax® technology delivers signal densities up to 63.5 differential pairs per inch when using a 5-pair connector system.
AirMax VS® 85Ohms High-Speed Backplane Connector
HIGH SPEED HARDMETRIC CONNECTOR FOR BACKPLANE SUPPORTING INTEL® QPI
AirMax VS® 85Ohms connectors are optimized to minimize impedance discontinuities and signal loss in 85Ohms channels. The connectors' mating interfaces also satisfy demands for backward compatibility to legacy 100 Ohms product interfaces ensuring a smooth transition to next-generation designs.
