2.4.1.9 HPA Connector (J8)
The HPA connector (J8) is a 10 pin circular, female (ITT #KPT02E-12-105) connector
used for HPA M&C and power functions. Refer to Table 2-5 for pin assignments for 2, 4,
8, 16, 25, 32, and 40 watt SSPAs. Pin assignments vary based on the amplifier type
selected.

Notes:
1. For a CEFD SSPA, J8 (external circular connector) is routed internally to J10 on
the M&C PC assembly AS/8876 (refer to Table 2-4).
2. Non-KST specific SSPA application, J8 (external circular connector) is routed
internally to J11 on the M&C PC assembly AS/8876, (refer to Table 2-5).
3. For a TWTA application, J8 (external circular connector) is routed internally to
J12 on the M&C PC assembly AS/8876, (refer to Table 2-6).
