Military connector system

Interconnection
Fischer’s UltiMate Original line of rugged connectors has been expanded to include new body styles and sizes to keep pace with customer demand for plugs, receptacles, cable and panel-mount requests. It is now available with multipole contacts from two to 42 pins, while rugged, IP68 soft caps have been developed for improved field protection, and tested on connectors at 120 m submersion for 24 hours (12 bars). Visual coding has also been added in addition to the mechanical coding.
Performance testing of the connectors has been conducted for salt fog over 500 hours of exposure for mechanical and electronic performance, as well as for shock and vibration. The UltiMate Original range is designed with military applications in mind – they are tested in similar ways to MIL standards and meet IEC standards that can easily be compared to MIL-Specs. As a result, former MIL 38999 customers have switched to Fischer’s push-pull connectors solution in particular for use in portable electronics such as soldier communication systems, optronic and unmanned equipment.
