High speed, harsh environment El Ochito® octaxial contacts save size and weight. Suitable for aircraft avionics, weapons systems, satellites, radars, communications equipment and other aerospace/defense gear, El Ochito® contacts are optimized for 40G Ethernet, SuperSpeed USB and other multi-gigabit datalink protocols including HDMI, DisplayPort and SATA. Available discrete contacts and jumper assemblies are readily incorporated into Glenair aerospace-grade circular and rectangular connectors.
- 40GbE, SuperSpeed USB, and multi-gigabit shielded pairs
- Crimp shield termination and threaded (serviceable) shield termination contact types
- Turnkey single-ended and point-to-point jumpers
- Snap-in, rear release
- Environmentally sealed and shielded
- Aerospace-grade performance
El Ochito® contacts are intended for harsh environment military and aerospace data networks. El Ochito® contacts provide up to 50% total weight savings and 20 times faster data rates compared to legacy quadrax-based solutions. These contacts have eight crimp signal pins housed in a machined, gold plated outer contact. El Ochito® octaxial contacts are available in three versions: El Ochito® White for 40GbE Ethernet, El Ochito® Blue for SuperSpeed USB, and El Ochito® Red for multigigabit 100 ohm protocols such as HDMI and SATA.
El Ochito® contacts are compatible with industry standard ARINC 600, EPXB and MIL-DTL-38999 connectors. Contact series is also optimized for Series 816, Series 792 Micro-Crimp Rectangular, Series 23 SuperNine®, micro miniature Series 806 Mil-Aero, and nano miniature circular SuperFly Datalink.
