The devices are specifically for high-reliability, high-density military applications such as communication systems and ground base stations, avionics, ground-based radar systems as well as other critical high frequency applications.
According to the company, this VITA 67 solution is believed to be the first true high-density, high-performance 65 GHz coaxial interconnect system on the market. System accuracy is improved as the connection system offers exceptional phase stability versus temperature and bending.
Insertion loss depends on the cable selected for the application while maximum VSWR at 40GHz is 1.55:1 and 1.75:1 at 65GHz. Operating temperature range is -65 to +155°C.
Available in 4 position SMPM and 8 position SMPM configurations, this VITA 67 connection system incorporates the company’s solderless Minibend bend-to-the-end technology with the tightest bending radius (0.06in/1.5mm) and right behind the connector. It can be assembled using cables with a diameter of 0.086in and smaller and the snap-in captivation method guarantees quick, easy and precise installations without tooling or loose parts.
