Interconnection


High-speed connector

2 February 2011 Interconnection

Radiall has expanded its connector product offering with the new HDQX series for high-speed Ethernet and RF data transmission. The connector combines a compact size with the ruggedness needed for high reliability and signal integrity in harsh aerospace and military environments. Offering 12 size-8 cavities in a high-density rectangular shell, the space-saving HDQX accepts ARINC 600 Quadrax and size-8 BMA contacts, as well as twinax and triaxial contacts.

Typical applications for the new connectors include data networks, in-flight entertainment systems, video control centres, and naval and military vehicle communications. Their robust design enables high-speed, high-density applications. For example, six 1000Base-T gigabit links are possible with the HDQX by using two parallel Quadrax contacts. In addition, the connector can utilise BMA contacts in RF connections at frequencies up to 18 GHz.

The HDQX series also features a centre locking device for reliable mating and easy connection, lightweight composite strain relief and its contacts are grounded to the shell for extremely low electrical resistance. Environmental sealing is available with an interfacial sealing on the shell as well as sealing boots on the contacts.
