TE Connectivity O.C.H. Micro Circular Connectors feature a lightweight aluminum shell and thermoplastic inserts. These micro circular connectors are small, light, tough, and ruggedized for the battlefield. The O.C.H. connectors include wide varieties of plugs, receptacles, and crimp contacts and come in different positions and contact types. These connectors offer high performance using a push-pull coupling that meets the breakaway force of 13±3 lbf. The ruggedized small circular connector variants meet the mechanical and environmental performance requirements of the MIL-STD-810G standard. Typical applications include soldier vest cables, batteries, radios, antennas, and military vehicles.

There’s rugged, and then there’s battlefield rugged. TE Connectivity’s O.C.H. Micro Circular Connectors fall in the latter category, meeting the mechanical and environmental performance requirements of the MIL-STD-810G with typical applications including soldier vest cables, batteries, radios, antennas, and military vehicles.
The connectors are protected by a lightweight aluminum shell and use thermoplastic inserts to minimize size and weight, because every ounce counts in body-worn applications. TE’s O.C.H. micro circular connectors are available in a wide variety of plugs, receptacles, and crimp contacts and in different position counts and contact types, and they’re intermateable with Nett Warrior products. The connectors offer push/pull quick disconnect coupling for fast mating, with a breakaway force of 13±3 lbf. Copper alloy contacts are plated with gold over nickel and rated for 5A.
