Advanced Electronic Connector Technologies

Military electrical connectors have traditionally used very conservative design rules that provide the ruggedization needed for harsh military use environments. Commercial electronic connectors have typically used less conservative design rules that provide sufficient reliability in the less harsh environments of the commercial world.

The EMPF is adapting these two novel commercial connector design features to standard military connector applications. The result is military leveraging of innovative commercial connector technology for the benefit of the warfighter. In addition to the first applications targeted at the electronic systems used aboard the Navy�s new Zumwalt class destroyer.
