TE Connectivity

The MULTIGIG RT 2 connector, the standard for VITA 46, represents a huge step forward in the world of rugged computing and C4ISR enabling technology. The connectors support speeds up to 10 Gb/s, providing a comfortable performance margin in VPX applications.

This modular connector system features a protected pinless backplane connector and wafer-based design in place of pin contacts. Wafers, available for differential, single-ended, and power needs, can be easily modified to support specific customer needs for characteristic impedance, propagation delay, and other electrical parameters. This lightweight connector system also offers built in ESD features, enabling field serviceability, and is fully qualifies for VITA 47 environments.

The VITA 66 standard for optics gives you the choice of MT array connectors, ARINC 801 termini, or expanded beam (EB) contacts using a common module. With an aerospace pedigree, each style of termini offers different benefits in terms of density, ruggedness, repairability, and other characteristics.

VITA 67 RF modules from TE are modular systems designed specifically to allow backplane/daughtercard multi-contact mating within a robust platform to withstand the mechanical rigors of military and aerospace applications. They are also fully compatible with VPX packaging to make it easy and convenient to achieve RF connectivity within a well-established architecture.

The contacts tolerate generous misalignment to allow blind mating and be configured to eliminate the possibility of stubbing. The contacts are housed in robust stainless steel or aluminum modules that hold four or eight contacts. The modules are configured to provide RFI/EMI shielding between the RF contacts and provide a high level of adjacent channel isolation of at least 100 dBc up through 40 GHz.

369 series connectors from TE Connectivity (TE) have been designed to meet today’s tightening industry regulations and Electrical Wiring Interconnect Systems (EWIS) best practices. Based on EN4165/ARINC 809 connectors, the lightweight, compact 369 series connectors, available in 3, 6, and 9 positions standard, are suited for applications where fewer contacts are needed in each connector and shielding is unnecessary.

Installation and maintenance of cabling is simple, quick, and reliable with a range of individually color-coded keying options. Each mated half of the connector can be configured with either male or female contacts, doubling the keying configurations available and electrically protecting contacts on the powered side of a system.

The connectors are fully sealed for use in areas with high levels of moisture. High-performance composite materials help meet the low smoke, toxicity and flammability requirements of the aerospace industry.

CeeLok FAS-T connectors offer a small form factor, field terminable I/O connector capable of 10Gb/s Ethernet. Crimp-snap contacts enable easy termination and field repairability. The integral backshell offers easy 360-degree shield termination.

With the tightening environmental regulations seeking to reduce or eliminate the use of cadmium, TE now offers black zinc nickel plating as an alternative to cadmium plating. With great electrical performance and sustainable environmental performance, black zinc nickel finishes give the same high level of corrosion resistance—withstanding 500-hour salt-spray testing for connectors and accessories and 1000 hours for AS85049 backshells—and temperature range as cadmium finishes.

Because black zinc nickel and cadmium have similar electrical potentials, parts with different platings can be mated with minimum risk of galvanic corrosion. Zinc nickel-pated parts can thus be easily integrated into existing applications where cadmium-plated connectors are used.

Hermetic connectors are used to separate an inert atmosphere or vacuum on one side from wide-ranging high-pressure, high temperature, or corrosive conditions on the other. They are also used to maintain a pressure differential between the two sections. In short, DEUTSCH hermetic connectors are designed to help provide a continuously gas-tight seal while withstanding: high pressures, extreme temperatures and high vibration
