Amphenol’s new Ranger military worn connector from Astute Group

amphenol ranger


Amphenol Ranger’s quick and easy mate and unmate feature makes it ideal for use in soldier-worn, harsh environment applications.

Astute Group, an authorised distributor and design-in partner for Amphenol, brings the Amphenol NEXUS Technologies’ miniature RANGER Tactical Communications Interconnects and cable assemblies for mission-critical signal and power applications.

Meeting and/or exceeding the Department of Defense’s communications, command, control, computer, and cyber defense (C5) systems’ specifications, the “Made in the USA” pin and socket push-pull or break-away locking components’ small footprint are ideally suited for soldier-worn applications, together with a broad range of vital harsh environment power, aerospace, and public safety communications networks.

This rugged, light-weight, multipurpose connector can be used for signal and power applications. Multi-pin configurations are coming soon.

Features & Benefits

  • Push/Pull Locking and Breakaway
  • Function IP-68 & IP69K, >5,000 mating cycles
  • Operating Temp Range: -60°F to 257°F (-51°C to +125°C)
  • Aluminum ruthenium plated body – lightweight yet rugged
  • Diameter of male and female connector is smaller than a penny

Each Ranger type has its benefits and features that make them unique. But they also vary in terms of shell contact, contact finish, current ratings, connector types, etc. So there’s something for everyone, especially industries with special equipment or instruments.
