DEUTSCH Wildcat series connectors
These connectors save weight and integrate aerospace equipment and cabling into increasingly confined spaces, with smaller, higher-density connectors capable of withstanding harsh environmental conditions such as vibration, high/low temperature and exposure to aggressive fluids. A range of shell and contact styles are available, including crimp and PCB contacts.
Product Features:
Wildcat 38999 Connector
- based on MIL-DTL-38999 Series 3 technology
- available in four housing sizes with between 11 and 64 contacts which provide almost double the contact density for a given 38999 connector size.
- triple-start threaded interface provides a robust and high-reliability coupling mechanism with a high level of resistance to shock and vibration.
- mounting and rear accessory options available enabling either backshell or cable braid and boot termination.
- As with the Micro series, the connectors are fully sealed with rear removable contacts and available in various plating and material finishes.
