Positronic SP Max Connectors

Positronic SP Max Connectors are specifically developed for power and signal management in rugged environments. These connectors feature precision machined shells, which are available in three sizes and provide Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) and Radio Frequency Interference (RFI) protection. The connectors operate over a temperature range of -55°C to +175°C. These connectors combine a multitude of contact sizes in a single connector, including 12, 16, 18, and 22 contacts. SP Max connectors find use in military, space, satellite, and commercial air applications.

Features
