FIBER OPTIC
Fiber optic termini connectors offer a precision optic interconnect system within the
Amphe-Lite connector. The Amphe-Lite connector provides protection from damage
in severe environmental and physical conditions. Optical performance is optimized
utilizing the ceramic alignment features employed by the termini. Insertion losses are
typically .8dB and can range from .5 to 1.5 dB, depending on test conditions.
See pages 18-20 for fiber optic termini features and how to order. Ask for publication
12-352 or contact Sidney, NY for more information on Amphenol Fiber Optic Con-
nectors.
Also available with MT and LC termination within an Amphe-Lite shell kit. Contact
Amphenol, Sidney for more information.
CONNECTORS WITH COAX CONTACTS
For shielded wire applications, coaxial contacts can be incorporated into Amphe-Lite
connectors. Designed-in crimp or solder types are available to fit various RG and
special cables. High performance coaxial contacts eliminate discontinuities or
impedance variations due to movement of parts under axial load.
For further information on coax contacts ask for catalog 12-130
FILTER CONNECTORS FOR EMI PROTECTION
EMI shielding protection can be integrated into the Amphe-Lite connector with a pla-
nar array filter device. This provides a cost effective alternative to discrete devices
mounted inside the box, and provides the weight and space savings necessary for
modern electronic systems.
Amphenol’s industrial connectors with filter protection are called the Amphe-dB
Series; a family of popular industrial cylindricals that are enhanced to provide EMI
protection. The Amphe-dB Series family includes the Amphe-Lite filter with a planar
filter device and also MIL-5015 and MIL-C-26482 connectors which incorporate chip
capacitor board filter devices.
FLEX TERMINATION ASSEMBLIES FOR PRINTED CIRCUIT BOARD
APPLICATIONS
Amphenol provides flex termination assemblies for printed circuit board attachment.
Flex circuits are available for Amphe-Lite connectors in flat or sculptured styles.
Sculptured
®
Flexible Circuits with built-in terminations eliminate the failures associ-
ated with crimped or solder-on contacts, and they are designed to geometrically fit
the tight space requirements within a unit. They plug into a printed circuit board and
create a self-locking terminal pad which eliminates the need for an additional inter-
connect to the PCB.
Consult Amphenol Industrial Operations for information on Amphe-Lite connectors
with flex circuits.
PC TAIL CONTACTS IN AMPHE-LITE
CONNECTORS
Another Amphe-Lite option allowing for greater
flexibility, is the jam nut with the stand-off
adapter. This combination provides a means to
fasten a PCB or rigid flex to the rear of a jam nut
shell. Shell style designator is a 0P. An example
part number is AL0PF17-35P. Consult Amphe-
nol Industrial Operations for further information.
