Glenair’s new product development model—for all our signature connector series—features constant, relentless expansion of supported contacts, wire sizes, and tooled insert arrangements. The Series 806 Mil-Aero is no different, and has now become the interconnect industry’s most comprehensive high-density circular connector solutions with tooled support for over 60 hybrid and non-hybrid contact arrangements. As you can see from the graphic above, the series now offers support for five contact sizes, giving the Series 806 the ability to support everything from standard signal, to power, high-speed datalink, high-frequency RF and microwave, fiber optics, and more.
RF / Microwave The Series 806 Mil-Aero is designed for rugged, harsh- environment land, air, and space applications, such as AESA and SAR radar, RF/microwave signal processing, GPS navigation, signal intelligence, altitude and orbit control systems, tracking telemetry and control, and other radio frequency- controlled systems. Drop-in multi-channel RF coaxial contacts in sizes 16, 12, and 8 are readily incorporated into the Series 806, and offered as turnkey assemblies with tested cable and commercial RF interfaces. Catalog solutions support frequencies DC to 6 GHz. Higher-frequency offerings up to 40 GHz may also be supported, depending on application requirements. The system supports both singlemode and multimode applications in all common wavelengths, and delivers outstanding environmental , electrical, and optical performance, with typical insertion loss of only 0.5 dB. As mentioned, Series 806 Mil-Aero is available in standard environmental, high-speed, high-temperature, hermetic, EMI filtered, and other special-purpose designs. Datasheets on these solutions are provided later in the issue—but for now, let’s do a brief overview of these many high-performance offerings. Fiber Optic Glenair Signature #20HD fiber optic termini, available in hybrid and non- hybrid insert arrangements, offer the same high data rate performance as larger size #16 D38999 series connectors with more fiber lines and reduced form factor in every shell size. 806 plug with #20HD F/O termini
High Temperature Sensor devices in aerospace engine applications are increasingly exposed to higher temperature operating environments, well beyond the capabilities of conventional interconnect devices. As mentioned, the Series 806 Mil-Aero is available in a special high- temperature solution. ThermaRex 806 includes connectors, cables, and accessory wire protection conduit systems for high-temperature applications up to 300°C. The series utilizes high-temperature ceramic insulators, and silicone seals. The key technology, however, is the Glenair Signature Crown Ring contacts that ensure continuous low-resistance performance in high continuous operating temperatures. Available in all standard Series 806 power and signal insert arrangements, Glenair Crown Ring Series 806 Mil-Aero: a complete range of connector classes and functionality
contacts deliver far superior high- temperature performance than any other available contact series.
