D38999/26FC8PB

The D38999/26FC8PB is a high-speed connector designed for use in land, sea, air and aerospace systems. It is available in two versions: the 26-way version with screw-mating contact system and the 8-way version with bayonet-mating contact system.

The D38999/26FC8PB connector is designed to meet the requirements of MIL-DTL-38999 and MIL-C-26482, two of the most important military connector series. The connector is suitable for the most reliable and advanced wire and cable interconnections, whereby it ensures optimal performance in applications requiring over-voltage, high-frequency, and harsh environmental conditions.

This connector is ideally suited for today’s and future applications, as it is extremely versatile. It can be used in a wide variety of applications, from Internet of Things (IoT) to 5G cellular systems, and from geophysical exploration to satellite communications. With its flexible design, this connector is suitable for complex designs with multiple combinations of contact arrangements, and the incorporation of various contact inserts.

The D38999/26FC8PB is also suitable for high-speed or mixed signal applications due to its ability to conduct up to 6 GHz. The connector is designed for a variety of signal voltages ranging from 3V to 50V and current ratings up to 5A, and can also be used as an integrated power/signal contact system.

The contact system used in the D38999/26FC8PB is the MIL-DTL-38999 style, with a number of variations in design. The connector’s mating interface is based on a double-ended design, with two rows of locking wedges that snap into place when connected. This provides a secure, vibration-proof connection that ensures performance in harsh conditions.

The contact system of the D38999/26FC8PB is designed for high temperatures, and provides reliable, efficient electrical connections in temperatures ranging from -55°C to +130°C. For additional protection, the contact system of this connector uses a dielectric material rated up to UL 94V-0 and IP67 sealing.

The screw-mating contact system of the D38999/26FC8PB makes it suitable for applications which require high torque connections. The threads on the screws provide an extra level of vibration resistance, reducing the risk of accidental disconnection in high vibration environments.

The bayonet-mating contact system of the D38999/26FC8PB is designed for applications requiring quick and secure connections. This system uses two locking pins that engage as the connector is twisted into its mating cylinder. The pins lock into place, securing the connection and providing a reliable, vibration-proof connection.

In addition to its electrical specifications, the D38999/26FC8PB is designed with durability in mind. The connector is corrosion-resistant and can withstand exposure to a variety of chemicals, oils, solvents, and ultra-violet radiation. The contact system is also designed for extended life, with increased contact retention and resistance to fretting corrosion.

The D38999/26FC8PB is a reliable, durable and versatile connector designed for use in a wide range of applications, making it one of the most popular choices for high-speed data, signal, and power connections. Its high performance and strength make it ideal for military, industrial, and commercial applications. With its versatile and reliable design, the D38999/26FC8PB is a cost-effective solution for high-speed and mixed signal interconnects.
