the proven long term reliability of its AISG products, Amphenol
now has a major share in the AISG market. The Eco|mateplastic connector program is in use as a power supply system forindoor and outdoor devices such as WCDMA and WiMAX RRH’s.

Jumper Cables Amphenol’s jumper cables are designed

RF Coaxial Cable Assemblies Amphenol offers a full line ofpre-assembled, fixed-length coaxial cable assemblies. Fixed
length assemblies are for use in a variety of commercial andindustrial applications that require standard configurations or
lengths. Cables are available with popular connector series
such as BNC, AMC, TNC, SMA and Type N.

TxRx Cable Assemblies Amphenol’s TxRx Sealed outdoor

for mobile networks. They typically come in shorter length
jumpers and longer versions. The shorter runs are typicallyused at the tower-top, connecting the antenna to a towermounted device such as an amplifier (TMA). Longer feeders
are used to run between that TMA and the base station on the
ground. These assemblies handle large amounts of power athigh frequency.

connection system allows a direct connection from an
outdoor environment to a PCB mounted SFP or SFP+ Cage,eliminating internal optical cabling requirements. The
Sealed LC Duplex interface accepts common transceivers,
providing a reliable optical connection while allowing anelectrical interface to be mated through the enclosure walland directly to a PCB interface. Also available in RJ-45
configurations allowing migration from copper to fiber
without changing the mounting footprint.

J-Connector Amphenol’s J-Connector Sealed outdoor

R2CT Sealed Assembly Housing Amphenol’s R2CT
provides a field installable interface for connecting equipment
to outdoor cable assemblies. The housing can be assembled
over existing LC, RJ-45 and other cable assemblies to provide
water and dust protection, eliminating the need to replacesome legacy or previously installed cables.

Silverline Test Cables The SilverLine of test cables
are specifically designed for a broad range of test
and interconnected applications with options for fieldand production PIM (Passive Intermodulation) Testing.
Fabricated from rugged cable with proved strain relief
systems, these cables provide long life and excellent
stability in applications where they are repeatedly flexed
and mated/unmated.

PT/LC Cable Assemblies The PT/LC leverages the provenmil-spec 264862 metal housing connector design to provide
an environmentally sealed and mechanically protected LC
duplex interface. PT/LC connectors are designed to performin the toughest environments, making them exceptionallysuited for outdoor applications such as WiMAX, LTE, andbackhaul. Multiple receptacle configurations allow standard
LC simplex or duplex internal cables to be mated, reducing
cost and allowing easy inspection or quick replacement with
off the shelf assemblies.

PT/MPO Cable Assemblies The PT/MPO leverages theproven MIL-Spec 264862 metal housing connector design toprovide an environmentally sealed and mechanically protected
multi fiber MPO-style interface. The bayonet style connector
system is quick to deploy, requiring only ¼ turn to lock inplace. The PT/MPO connectors are exceptionally well suited for
WiMAX, LTE and Backhaul applications.

AARC Cable Assemblies The AARC plug and receptacle
assemblies combine the reliability of the threaded N-Styleconnector housing with the ability to connect either 2 or 4
optical fibers in an outdoor environment. Compatible with the
ODC ® system, the AARC assemblies provide a dust and water
sealed interface suitable for connection to outdoor mounted
RRH or similar equipment used in WiMAX, LTE and Backhaul
technologies.
