This booklet is intended to be used as a ready reference to typical
standard, miniature and subminiature cylindrical connector part
numbers and terminology. Reading its brief pages will not make you
a connector expert, but should guide you in becoming familiar with
the product, in order to better serve our customers.
Manufacturing connectors since 1932, we take pride that Amphenol
Industrial Operations is the undisputed leader in interconnect
systems for harsh environment applications. Such applications
require a high degree of engineering sophistication and precision
manufacturing capability. Innovations like our RADSOK® contact
technology can provide roughly 50% more current through the same
size pin. Connectors utilizing this RADSOK® technology will
outperform similar products in the market hands down.
