| Derivates |
|
 |
Receptacles with Stand-off |
| Square flange and jam nut receptacles equipped with PC tail contacts and stand-off. This device allows to fix directly the connector to the board with 3 or 4 screws.
This feature avoids the use of fastening device during the soldering process and ensures a perfect grounding between the shell of the connector and the ground of the board. It prevents any mechanical stress on the contacts' terminations during the life of the equipment and increases the reliability and the resistance to shocks and vibrations. |
 |
RNJ / HE308 - Rack & Panel Cylindrical Connectors |
| The RNJ rack and panel connectors are used to connect electrical or optical devices between a moving unit (rack) and a fixed unit (panel), without any coupling / uncoupling system. The locking of the mated pair is ensured by the mechanical device of the rack.
These connectors with realignment capability were designed for harsh environment in term of sealing, shocks, vibrations and EMI protection. The RNJ connectors are HE308 qualified.
|
 |
RNJLP - Low Profile Rack & Panel Connectors |
| The RNJLP rack and panel connectors are designed to connect electrical devices between a moving unit (rack) and a fixed unit (panel). The locking of the mating pair is ensured by the mechanical device of the rack.
These connectors with realignment capability were designed for harsh environment, with a low profile design allowing a short distance between the two panels. This is a big benefit for the systems where space is an issue.
|
 |
PP39 - Push-Pull Connectors |
| The PP39 connectors are the first push-pull connectors fully derivated from the MIL-DTL-38999 series III standard.
Their mechanical and electrical performances meet or exceed the ones of this standard, class W of F.
The PP39 connectors have the same outer dimensions and inserts as the MIL-DTL-38999 III ones. Receptacles with stand-off, integrated backshells and lanyard versions are available. |
 |
SC39 - Snatch Release Connectors |
| The SC39 connectors offer a new connecting solution, particularly for applications which required a fast and easy connection/disconnection. The innovation lay in the mating system. It consists in a circular spring trapped in the receptacle which keeps the plug mated. The SC39, without any rotating ring or moving part insures a high reliability.
Receptacles with stand-off, integrated backshells and lanyard versions are available.
|
 |
Very High Density Inserts |
| Amphenol Socapex has developed a full range of High Density inserts to fit in any MIL-DTL-38999 shell types (LJT, JT, TV, CTV) or derivates (RNJ, RNJLP, PP39, SC39…).
These inserts allow a contact density increase up to 45% versus a standard MIL-DTL-38999 insert, by using size 23 MIL qualified contacts (M39029/47-314 and M39029/33-264). Contacts with PC-tails are also available. |
 |
38999 Power Safe Connectors |
| The 38999 Power Safe connectors are designed to transmit high power with voltages from 250 V to 500 V.
Those connectors are directly derived from the standard MIL-DTL-38999 III, with the same environmental characteristics. Their main benefit is to provide a real user safety, due to a first-to-mate earth contact directly linked to the shell. The last-to-mate/first-to-break pilot contact allows the mating and unmating without power.
|
 |
38999 Power Connectors |
| These connectors, derived from the MIL-DTL-38999 Series are equipped with ruggedized power inserts. The power contacts are crimp contacts for 60 Amps,100 Amps, 230 Amps and 500 Amps currents.
These power connectors are available in different shell types : MIL-DTL-38999 I (LJT), MIL-DTL-38999 III (TV-CTV), VG96912 (SJT), RNJ and RNJLP. The 4 x 60 Amps and the 4 x 100 Amps are HE308 qualified (bayonet and rackable versions). |
 |
Receptacles with Enhanced Sealing |
| Standard MIL-DTL-38999 and derived receptacles are available with sealed inserts and non removable contacts. These connectors withstand differential pressure with a very low air leakage. They are available in male and female versions and their aluminum alloy shells allow lots of geometries versus glass filled hermetic connectors. Available with wire soldering and PCB contacts. |
 |
Integrated backshells |
| Available on plugs and receptacles, these 2-in-1 connectors/band backshells provide a highe EMI protection with a quick, easy and cost effective cabling process. They are low profile, with enhanced sealing level and allow the use of macro or micro bands, as well as straight or right angled heat shrink moulded pieces. The desigh of the shells make them compatible with overmolding process. |
 |
Field bus solutions |
| MIL-DTL-38999 aluminium shells can be fitted directly -without particular tooling- with standard cordsets such as RJ45 Ethernet (Cat.5e), USB, Firewire (IEEE1394), RJ11 and the MTRJ and LC fiber optic interfaces. These connectors provide environmental protection : IP67, dust, shocks and vibrations. They also eliminate hazardous and costly in-field assembly. |

Filtered Connectors |
| Amphenol have a very strong experience in designing and manufacturing filter solutions for the Mil Aerospace industry. Filtered connectors, derived from MIL-DTL-38999, using planar and tubular technology provide EMI and EMP protection. The filter types are available in a wide range of capacitance and voltage values and may be selected in virtually any combination within the connector insert (Pi, LRC, CLR, C, T). Filter adapters are available for existing devices for filtering without redesign. For PCB versions, header assemblies protect the connectors before soldering onto the PC boards.

 |
Grounded Connectors |
| Connectors equipped with ground plane inserts allow the grounding of all high speed contacts to the connector shell and then to the chassis of the equipment without hazardous cabling operation.
This ground plane technology is now available in many connector series such as : MIL-DTL-38999 I and III, as well as derived products (RNJ, RNJLP, SC39) for size 16, 12 and 8 high speed contacts.
The new low voltage differential signaling contacts - Differential Twinax and Quadrax - have also their dedicated ground plane inserts. |
