Connectors
Amphenol has been designing and manufacturing electrical and electronic connectors since the company’s inception in 1932. For nearly a century, we’ve been helping customers transmit power, data and signal in the harshest environments, from subsea applications to the outer reaches of space and everywhere in between. Our wide array of electrical and electronic connectors come in multiple form factors and are designed to meet the latest market needs including high power, high speeds, size and weight reduction, EMI shielding, hermeticity, high pressure and improved board retention. Amphenol also offers a broad portfolio of contact styles, termination types, mating styles, connector geometries and environmentally-friendly RoHS plating.

RF Microswitches
RF Switches are typically used as test access points or for external antenna applications. The switch is activated by manually mating a connector to change the RF path. RF switches come in several different interfaces, with MMCX and MCX being the most popular.
RF Microwave Harnesses
We support the full spectrum of harness interfaces including
1. MIL-SPEC circular and rectangular connectors
2. D38999
3. ARINC
4. LRM
RFM Power
Blind mate modular floating rack with high voltage contacts.
RFM Quadrax
Blind mate modular floating rack connector with Quadrax contacts for high-speed applications.
RFM Series
Amphenol Socapex offers RFM Series, Rack & Panel connectors, featuring blind mate and modular floating. RFM connectors are compliant with EN45545 & NF F 61-032 standards. RFM connectors have been used for many years by OEMs for harsh environments and in railway applications for security systems. The robustness and realignment capability of RFM connectors deliver also durability and reliability.
RF Switches
Amphenol’s full range of RF switches come in straight and right-angle mountings as well as miniature, low-profile, and lightweight versions for different phone design requirements. Our full mechanical switches provide high reliability for wireless terminal testing and connection to external car antennas of up to 5Ghz.
Rhino
RHINO combines the benefits of field-proven MIL-DTL-38999 Series III circular connectors with low resistance hyperbolic RADSOK® power contacts. RHINO is designed to meet the latest military and industrial specifications and is intended to satisfy market requirements for high power & voltage applications in harsh environment conditions.
Rib-Cage® Board-To-Board
Rib-Cage® connectors provide optimal precision and reliability at a competitive commercial cost. With an exclusive design, the Rib-Cage® multipoint, gold plated receptacle contacts meet high-performance standards for use in applications with shock and vibration. This versatile system includes dual-row, pin-and-socket connectors for right-angle and mezzanine connections between PCB or FPC.
Rig-Lok Vortex
RIG-LOK is a Single Pole, dual finger proof, metal connector that delivers high power thanks to the 19mm RADSOK technology. This connector can be terminated with cable from 4/0 up to 777MCM. Its through-shell conductivity between components allows grounding terminated to be conducted from gland to next connection with good EMI properties.
Rig-Power
Rig-Power Single Pole connectors are the standard of the industry for top drive interconnects. Featuring RADSOK® high amperage contact technology which uses the high tensile strength properties of a stamped and formed, high conductivity alloy grid to produce low insertion forces while maintaining a large conductive surface area.
