Ruggedised USB Type-C connector for harsh environments

USB Type-C connector, USB3CFTV

Amphenol Socapex announces the release of a raggedest USB Type-C connector, USB3CFTV, based on the MIL-DTL-38999 series III standard.

The USB3CFTV is a ruggedised solution designed to withstand harsh environments and demanding applications such as military communications, military planes, aerospace, commercial air, and naval applications. 

The connector features a Tri start thread coupling mechanism that ensures resistance to shocks, vibration, and cable traction. It also provides a high level of sealing protection against external fluids and dust exposure, up to IP68.

The USB3CFTV connector is a solution for designers who require the flexibility of the USB Type-C standard and the ruggedness of Amphenol Socapex’s connector solutions. With this connector, designers can develop a wide range of data, power delivery, and video configurations.

The USB3CFTV connector also provides enhanced EMI protection and is available in a range of materials and coatings compliant with various environmental regulations. This makes it suitable for use in extreme temperatures, harsh chemical environments, and other demanding conditions.
