SANTA ANA, Calif. - ITT Interconnect Solutions, a leading global manufacturer and supplier of connectors, interconnects, and cable assemblies, has developed a high density connector with more than double the number of contacts found in standard MIL-DTL 38999 connectors. Designated the KJA 300 Series, the connector accommodates 300 size 22D contacts in a single package while meeting all MIL-DTL 38999 specifications.

"The KJA 300 Series connector features the highest density layout available in our extensive circular product line. While typical MIL-DTL

38999 connectors employ 128 contacts, our houses 300," said James Yoshitake, product manager for ITT Interconnect Solutions. "This connector provides customers with a space saving solution while enhancing functionality and reducing size and weight in demanding applications."

Typical applications include military communications systems and combat vehicles, ground support networks, avionics and test equipment.

The KJA 300 Series connector features EMI shielding, gold-plated contacts, rear release crimp contacts and wire sealing grommets. Wall mount receptacle and plug shell styles are also available.

Typical pricing for the KJA 300 Series connectors is approximately $470 for a mated pair. Lead time is from 12 to 14 weeks.
