ITT Expands Quadrax Connector Offering with 38999 Circular Connector Series
Ethernet contact system ideal for in-flight entertainment and information systems...
LAS VEGAS, NV - May 5, 2008 - ITT Interconnect Solutions, a leading global manufacturer
and supplier of connectors, interconnects, and cable assemblies, has expanded its line of connector solutions for aircraft data network systems. Originally designed to meet ARINC 600 specifications, the contact system in these circular connectors now meets MIL-DTL-38999 Series III specifications.
"Due to the popularity of the Quadrax connector housings, we adapted the circular connectors to comply with 38999 Series III requirements to support customers with Ethernet applications in markets other than avionics," said Keith Teichmann, director of marketing for ITT Interconnect Solutions. "We've seen extensive growth of this product line within the past few years, and we fully expect that to continue as more avionics manufacturers and others require high speed Internet transmission."
Also included in the Quadrax connector product offering are the BKA Series and DPX Series rack and panel connectors. The BKA Series connectors feature both rear and front
release/removable, low insertion contacts, and hold 28 or 56 size 8 Quadrax contacts. The connectors are completely intermateable and intermountable with ARINC 600 standards.
The DPX Series rack and panel connectors are offered in single-, two-, three- and four-gang versions and accommodate 7, 14, 21 and 28 size 8 Quadrax contacts, or 8, 16, 24 and 32 size 5 Quadrax contacts, respectively.
The Quadrax system is a four-interconnect contact enabling the transmission of high speed signals required in Ethernet applications, including in-flight entertainment and information systems. The Quadrax contact is a size 8 multi-pin contact providing four signal pins to yield a single Ethernet port. The crimp version of the size 8 Quadrax contacts terminates a 100(TM) "Star Quad" cable. Detailed information about the full Quadrax connector product range, including layouts, contact arrangements and specifications, is available in ITT's new Quadrax catalog. Custom designs not outlined in the catalog are also available.
