Military / Aerospace Industry

Connector Solutions

Like many other industries, Military and Aerospace technologies have required a new way to look at technologies. The sizes of various applications allow for a wide range of solutions. Avionics is a very size and weight constrained application. It forces a tight solution in every dimension and every gram counts. On the other end of the spectrum, commercial aviation has a need for rugged performance. These will be high power solutions as well. Another industry where intense shock and vibration is required is missile systems. These need to be reliable and work in a mission critical application.

When determining what type of connector is needed, start with how what is being connected. With these applications it may be a board to board, wire to board, or wire to wire. From there one would determine power, current, pin count and of course dimensions. KYOCERA AVX connector line includes several high reliability options. The product portfolio continues to grow with customer requirements and challenges.
