MIL-C-38999 Shell embedded SFF-8470 Plug
MIL-C 38999 Shell w:embedded SFF-8470 Receptacle to Pigtail
MIL-C-38999 Shell with embedded SFF-8470 Feed-Thru Receptacle

Meritec’s 4X (SFF-8470) Plug Termination with LSZH cable and its Receptacle embedded in the mating rugged circular MIL-C-38999 shells provides both a durable and high bandwidth interconnect scheme suitable for many Military, Airborne and Medical application not previously accommodated by industry standard interconnects.

Meritec’s LSZH cable assemblies support differential pair signaling with low-skew pairs and with shielding for maximum EMI/RFI protection. Meritec’s cable technology allows data rates in excess of 6.0 Gb/s and meets or exceeds SAS, InfiniBand, Ethernet CX4 and SATA requirements. Reduced crosstalk and low insertion loss enhance the scalability.
