Glenair’s Series 80 ‘Mighty Mouse’ connector is designed for high-reliability aerospace/defence interconnect applications requiring robust environmental performance and reduced size and weight. The connector offers virtually equal performance to MIL-DTL-38999 interconnects with up to 71% weight and 52% size savings for similar contact layouts.
The Series 80 connector was originally developed as a smaller and lighter alternative to D38999 connectors for aerospace applications such as attack helicopters and unmanned aerial vehicles. Today, the product range serves in thousands of safety-critical defence, medical, industrial and geo-physical applications.
Six standard designs include Series 800 light duty UN thread, series 801 heavy duty double-start, series 802 ‘Aqua Mouse’ harsh environmental, series 803 bayonet, series 804 quick-disconnect and series 805 triple-start variants. All connectors in the family are available with rear-release crimp contacts or with PC tail or solder cup terminations. Shell styles including in-line plugs, square-flange and jam-nut receptacles are available for all types. Integrated banding platforms for EMI shield termination or rear-end threads for backshell accessories are also standard throughout the line.
The Mighty Mouse features #23 contacts to accept #22 to #28 wire. Contact spacing is 1,93 mm. Size #12, #16 and #20 layouts are also available for higher current requirements and for coaxial contact accommodation. The smaller and lighter Mighty Mouse maintains the same approximate electrical and mechanical performance as larger and heavier military standard environmental connectors. Glenair offers the most common Series 80 insert arrangements and terminations as standard catalogue (COTS) products. Insert arrangements are available for as few as 1 and as many as 130 contacts.
