Micro-D Ethernet connector

3 March 2010 Interconnection

The new Micro-D Ethernet connector from Axon is designed for 10 Gbps operation in harsh environments. It mitigates connector cross-talk and reflection phenomena and provides a high level of EMI immunity thanks to the entire assembly having 360° shield termination. This solution is said to offer an 80% space saving when compared to the commonly used method of integrating an RJ45 connector in a MIL-DTL-38999 housing.

This new assembly incorporates Axon’s Micro-D nickel plated aluminium connectors according to the MIL-DTL-83513 standard especially designed to meet full 360° EMC and mechanical protection. They offer a high level of shock, vibration and mechanical impact protection. Axon’s extrusion A-PAIR technology combines the dielectric properties of both PTFE and air through an optimised alveolar structure. PTFE is a high performance insulating material known for its resistance to high temperatures (-200°C to +260°C), its hot and cold temperature stability, water and UV light resistance and its low dielectric constant.
