TE Connectivity (TE) announces the release of the MULTIGIG RT 2-R connector. This rugged, lightweight and high-speed board-to-board interconnect is compliant to VITA 46, including backward compatibility with all existing VITA 46 daughter cards, and supports OpenVPX architecture.
- Features modularity and flexibility, as well as a quad-redundant contact structure designed for extreme vibration levels
- Ruggedized guide hardware is also available for use with the connector to increase stability of the daughtercard-to-backplane interface under shock and vibration
- Tested to HALT (highly accelerated life test) vibration levels per VITA 72, and the robust “pinless” interface has been tested up to 10,000 mating/unmating cycles
- Connector modules are available for 6U and 3U VPX slot profiles, including rear transition modules, and support 0.8 in. card slot pitches
- Supports high-speed protocols
- Well suited for rugged embedded computing applications for ground defense, missile defense, electronic systems/C4ISR, and commercial and military aerospace applications.
- Compliance with VITA 46 enables upgrades in existing VPX applications
- Can be used in conjunction with RF Modules (VITA 67) and optical modules (VITA 66) to customize slot configurations
- Features a reliable press-fit termination, requiring only flat rock tooling
- Contacts made with high performance copper alloy plated 50 µin Au over 50 µin Ni in mating area, tin-lead on compliant pin tails
- Housings are space compatible, high-temperature thermoplastic
- Rugged guide hardware made with aluminum or passivated stainless steel
