Amphenol Aerospace developed the Ruggedized VME64x in response to the military trend towards VME64x and the utilization of COTS Boards and Chassis. The Amphenol Ruggedized VME64x interconnect has a more rugged interface than standard connectors for improved vibration durability. It meets the needs for a harsh environment connector requiring Level 2 maintenance. Military and commercial aviation, military vehicles and GPS systems are examples of markets that need the ruggedized VME64x connector solution from Amphenol. The Amphenol Ruggedized VME64x connector mounts to standard VME64x cards and backplanes, but it does not mate to other types of VME commercial connectors. VITA-66.1 Fiber Optic Interconnects Amphenol's proposed VITA-66.1 (supersedes VITA-46) MT connector provides a reliable high speed connection for the most extreme commercial and military environments. This ruggedized interconnect is among the highest density of connector products on the market. MT ferrules can be accommodated as follows: Up to 24 fiber optic channels per MT ferrule Up to 48 channels per connector MT ferrules are not supplied by Amphenol. Connectors are supplied less the MT ferrules.
