Amphenol Aerospace Concentric Twinax Contacts

Amphenol Concentric Twinax Shielded Contacts offer high-performance shielding capabilities for protection from magnetic and electrostatic interference, including nuclear electromagnetic pulse. The contact is crimp terminable to twisted shielded cable and is fully scoop-proof (recessed pins) in MIL-DTL-38999 connectors. The concentric twinax contact is engineered to maintain shielded integrity through a multi-pin cylindrical connector and does not require contact polarization within the insert.

Size 8 concentric twinax contacts are developed for use in the MIL-STD-1553B Airborne multiplex data bus application. The concentric twinax contact is crimp terminable to twisted shielded cable. Amphenol Twinax Contacts is designed for use with twinax cable in data bus systems. Some of the applications include military, missile, and ordnance.
