Amphenol is a leading provider of high-performance interconnect systems and components to the commercial aerospace market. In addition to connector and interconnect assembly products, we also provide rigid and flexible printed circuits as well as high-technology cable management products. Our products are specifically designed to operate in the harsh environments of commercial aerospace while also providing substantial weight reduction, simplified installation and minimal maintenance. Our solutions primarily address aircraft and airframe power distribution, avionics, controls and instrumentation, engines, in-flight entertainment, in-flight internet connectivity, lighting and control systems, and wire bundling and cable management.
The connectors in use today by the airframe OEMs and the suppliers of galleys and galley insert modules have been standardized for ease of maintenance and interchangeability, and are designed to accommodate the many different plug-in warming devices and other ancillary units presently in use world-wide. These lightweight style connectors have a positive latch type lock.
State-of-the-art machine with abilities to machine, coat, inspect, and assemble mechanical solutions for our internal and external customers. Our capabilities include Six 4-Axis Mazak machines, 5-Axis Mazak Integrex, water-jet, and press brake, CMM, vacuum fixturing for thin-walled heat-sinks.
High-performance Conduits are intended to be supported by Amphenol Pcd P-Clamps. Conduits provide support for wire bundles where separation or protection from other systems or structures is necessary. Conduits can be installed anywhere in the aircraft, including the wings. Although Amphenol Pcd Conduits are available in various standard configurations and sizes, we offer custom products as well.
SV Microwave's conformable cable assemblies feature hand-formable cable that retains its shape after being placed into specific bends providing a balance between bending capability and high-frequency performance up to 40 GHz. These cable assemblies, recognized for their customizable features, are useful for prototyping and development.
Amphenol CDI CoreHC™ is a high-performance, solderless ganged coaxial solution designed for direct PCB attachment. Featuring a 2.5mm pitch signal-to-signal configuration, it enables engineers to maximize space savings while reducing PCB size and cost. The DC-70GHz connector minimizes trace lengths, optimizing insertion loss and ensuring superior performance.
SV Microwave offers a flexible approach to customizing our COTS products to meet unique customer needs. Our applications and design engineering teams routinely make minor adjustments to standard parts-such as lengthening flanges, adjusting retention features, or altering PCB connector lengths—to support specific design requirements. Below are some examples.
CQ Connectors are aerospace-grade, quick-disconnect rectangular connectors based on the standard D-Subminiature (MIL-DTL-24308) footprint. Featuring a unique push-button locking mechanism that eliminates the need for tools and screws, they are designed for rapid installation, blind-mating, and Foreign Object Debris (FOD) prevention in mission-critical aviation and defense applications.
CRN Bracket is custom-made to hold the “Current Return Network” in place inside a composite aircraft. Very easy to install with a bolt, the CRN system is fixed in place by hand with an integrated snap system on the bracket. The bracket is made of PEEK material and silicone is over-molded onto the bracket.
Amphenol CDI’s cryogenic semi‑rigid cable assemblies are engineered for precision, stability, and ultra‑low‑temperature performance, delivering reliable signal integrity for quantum computing, scientific instrumentation, aerospace, and advanced electronic systems. Built with robust materials, rugged construction, and flexible configuration options—including customizable connectors, lengths, etc.
The CSLT is a quick coupling connector for use in Avionics systems, which can be used with PC tail and solder cup contacts in the receptacle and standard AS39029 size 20 contacts in the plug. This connector can be polarized in six different positions. The bayonet post design on this quick coupling connector is just an example of the capabilities we have available for your custom interconnect solutions.
