GJB599 Series III (MIL-DTL-38999 Series III) Electrical Connector | High-Density Multi-Pin Rugged Connector | EMI Shielded

The GJB599 Series III connector conforms to GJB599B (MIL-DTL-38999M) Series III standards and is engineered for demanding industrial and mili-tary environments. It features a three-head threaded quick-connect mechanism with anti-loosening functionality. Compact and lightweight, the connector provides high contact density with electromagnetic shielding. Contacts are detachable crimp-type, and pins are designed to prevent misalignment during insertion.  

This connector demonstrates high-strength vibration performance at elevated temperatures, making it suitable for harsh sandy and humid conditions. Specific hole positions accommodate optical fiber, coaxial, and shielded contacts depending on pin specifications.
