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.

PCI Express® Gen 3 Card Edge Connectors
Amphenol's 1.00mm pitch, vertical card edge connectors enable PCI Express® (PCIe®) signaling from 2.5Gb/s (Gen 1) and 5Gb/s (Gen 2) up to 8Gb/s (Gen 3) per differential signal pair. A modular design of these connectors allows standard pin counts like 36, 64, 98, 164, and 280.
PCI Express® Gen 4 and Gen 5 Card Edge Connectors
PCIe® Gen 4 and Gen 5 connectors outperform industry-standard PCIe® 4.0 and 5.0 (Proposed) requiring higher speed performance. The optimized series supports backward mating and is footprint compatible with PCIe 3/2/1. Amphenol's expansive range of vertical PCIe® Gen 4 and Gen 5 connectors will include options for SMT, through-hole solder, press-fit (PF), and straddle mount terminations.
PCS
The PCS Series are versatile, high-current, mixed density connectors with low contact resistance. It remains an industry-leading power connector in the market. Options for one, two, or three contact rows provide flexibility in selection and high conductivity contacts are available to maximize current density. Other options - sequential mating, integrated locking latch, and press-fit contacts.
Pegasus
Pegasus is Amphenol Pcd’s latest innovation in small, lightweight, rugged connectors. Designed for use in harsh environments, Pegasus builds on the successful Luminus Series Aerospace connector with the addition of EMI shielding. Tests show between 40db and 60db of attenuation, depending on frequency. RoHS and REACH compliant.
Pegasus High Speed
Pegasus High Speed provides exceptional performance in tight spaces, with a svelte shell size 8 (0.512”) outer diameter. With the explosive growth in Ethernet-enabled devices (IOT), this is size and configuration is particularly suited for endpoint applications, such as individual avionics sensors, panel-mounted units, seat back, and wall-mounted displays and monuments.
PHEN/PHEC Board-to-Board
PHEN/PHEC is a series of 1.27mm pitch board-to-board products that can tolerate a maximum misalignment of 1.3mm between the plug and receptacle. This ensures no damage to the housing or contact during angular mating. The tolerance is the result of the robustness of the housing design.
Pin-Plugs Pluggable System
This series is economical pluggable PCB terminal blocks, and with simple construction. They can connect conducting wires whose cross-sections are 0.08mm² to 3.3mm². The pitches are available at 3.5mm to 8.0mm.Product design in line with IEC60947-7-1, IEC60998-2-1, IEC60999-1, UL1059, CSA C22.2 No.158 and other international standards.
P-Lok®
This series, based on the SAE AS50151 is a ruggedized harsh environment, metal push/pull coupling, power and signal connector. With over 80 insert arrangements ranging from 2 to 26 contacts per connector and up to 135 amps possible with a standard operating temperature from -55°C to +125°C.
Plug Connectors
Safe electrical connections are the alpha and omega of reliably functioning vehicles. Our large assortment offers various contact housings for different current and voltage ranges with a variable number of poles. The connectors are sealed or unsealed or shielded or unshielded as required.

Pluto
The Pluto Series is ideal for medical devices and designed to be either disposable or reusable, suiting to a variety of medical applications such as ablation catheters, diagnostics, system connections, and more. This intuitive connector is a cost-competitive option with smooth and comfortable usability.
Pogo Pin/ Pogo Module
Amphenol offers a wide product range of spring loaded connectors. These connectors have a large working range and high contact force allowing safe data transmission. They are widely used in wearable applications and can also be fitted in various customized connecting solutions.
Power Card Edge
The Power Card Edge connectors are a cost-effective system that can be used for DC power output from embedded AC/DC power supplies or for power distribution between boards within an enclosure. The narrow connector body helps maximize airflow for increased cooling and is well-suited for use in 1U rack-mount servers or on power distribution boards inside 1U redundant power supply assemblies.
Power Connectors
In design and conception, the Ecomate® program meets the high requirements for applications in industrial technology. Easy operation, reduced dimensions, and a more robust design are only a few of the features of the series. The connector's main area of application is in the fields of plant construction and machine building.
Power Distribution and Connection Terminals
AFTG has a wide range of passive components in switchboards. These are power distribution terminals such as terminal blocks, feed-in terminals, main branch terminals, stud terminals, easy connections boxes, grounding terminals, and screwless clamping terminals as well as bus bar steel terminals in different colors and cable cross-sections.
PowerLok G2 Series Connector
POWERLOK G2 series is a high-performance, compact, aluminum alloy interconnect solution utilizing RADSOK contact technology for EV and Hybrid transportation applications. POWERLOK G2 series connectors are engineered for a diverse set of applications including electric power distribution for automotive, truck, bus, agricultural, construction, and off-road vehicles.
PowerSafe
PowerSafe MIL-DTL-38999 Series III is developed to transfer high power (1000 V) in harsh environments, with full safety for the user.
PowerSafe as per VG96944
Circular connectors, TV of aluminum, stainless steel, marine bronze, approved as per MIL-DTL-38999 Series III. Versions available as power plugs from 250V to 500V, Powersafe, with pre-mated mass contacts.
POWERSOK
HV/HP connector for applications >60V. The POWERSOK family is grouped into different classes that define the resulting RADSOK and installation size. All connectors are equipped with a corresponding lock.
Power USB Connector
FCI Basics Power USB Connector enables additional power delivery to 5V, 12V, or 24V peripheral devices connected using USB 2.0 cable links. When compared to a standard USB connector, this USB+Power connector interface includes four additional contacts each rated at 5A/contact, to supplement the connector's current-carrying capability. This eliminates the need for a separate power cable.
Pre-Tinned (De-Golded) Capabilities
SV Microwave has developed a unique and proprietary method for removing gold in the solder area of our RF connectors. We plan for gold removal in the design stage, modifying the connector body so it can be fixtured effectively and gold can be thoroughly removed from the solderable area - including nearby areas which may be prone to capillary effect wicking.
