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.

SurLok Plus™
This series, a field installable compression lug utilizing RADSOK® socket contact technology, ruggedized harsh environment, thermoplastic housing, metal lug, press-fit high power connector. With a single pole arrangement ranging from 3.6mm to 14mm and up to 500 amps possible with a standard operating temperature from -40°C to +105°C.
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.

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® 12-Channel RigLinQ
The TFOCA-II® 12-channel RigLinQ hybrid design lowers overall systems cost and greatly reduces panel mounts footprint by combining optical and electrical signals in one quick connect housing. This design takes advantage of the latest technology by utilizing an industry-exclusive fully articulating optical termini for superior optical performance and environmental open-face sealing.
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.
