1663998-1

ARINC 1663998-1 is a form of backplane connector characterized by high contact density and high reliability for the most demanding applications. This type of connector consists of two mated connectors, a male and a female, mounted on opposite sides of the backplane. The male contacts are mounted on the backplane at the corners of a square pattern, and the female are mounted on the board or device seated in the backplane. The male contacts are externally accessible to the user.

ARINC 1663998-1 is mainly used for applications that require high contact density and reliability such as avionics, military, industrial and aerospace. It is suitable for applications where multiple boards or devices are connected via the backplane. This type of connector is specifically designed to facilitate high speed design for applications that require up to 20GHz bandwidth. A variety of different I/O and power pins are available depending on the size of the connector.The connector’s superior design makes it perfect for applications where high contact density and power are required. It is also an ideal solution for applications where EMI shielding and robustness are essential because the large metal frames surrounding the female connector ensure robustness.The connector also offers great flexibility with its ability to support a variety of contacts from power, coaxial, RJ-45, I/O and others.

ARINC 1663998-1 provides superior electrical performance due to its high contact count. It has a high electrical current carrying capacity with its differential mating interfaces. The differential position insures alignment of the male and female contacts, ensuring their clean mating. The female contacts are also equipped with additional securing features to prevent misalignment.The connector also features a shielded “thru-hole” configuration that covers the male and female connectors, helping to prevent EMI and crosstalk. The large surface area of the metal center frame of the female connector helps reduce crosstalk levels further.ARINC 1663998-1 provides superior ease of use and installation. It has a snap-in jack for easy installation in the backplane. Its robust design allows it to be installed without fear of damage in the most demanding environments.In short, ARINC 1663998-1 is an ideal solution for applications that require robustness, reliability, and high contact density. It has proven itself in a variety of applications ranging from avionics, military, industrial, and aerospace.
