TE Connectivity NanoRF Modules and Contacts

TE Connectivity NanoRF Modules and Contacts are designed for military electronics, C4ISR, and electronic warfare applications in embedded computing. These components provide a higher density RF coax module, offering twice the density of the VITA 67 SMPM RF modules used in VPX embedded computing applications. Half and full-size modules can accommodate up to 12 or 18+ RF contacts, with customizable contact count and positioning. The daughtercard modules are mounted to the card in the VPX Plug-in module, while the backplane module is mounted into the chassis backplane.

Features

  • Aluminum modules offered for weight reduction
  • Blind-mateable float-mounted backplane contacts support module-to-module or box-to-box architecture
  • Multiple cable types available to meet application requirements, designed for .047" coax cables
  • No specialized tools needed for installation
  • Optimized design ensures low loss, excellent isolation, and signal integrity
  • Small contact size and increased RF contact density allow for compact packaging
  • TE tested connectors to vibration requirements per VITA 72

Applications

  • C4ISR
  • Electronic Warfare (EW)
  • Embedded computing (VPX modules and radar processing)
  • Military electronics
