Miniature M55116-Type TAC Connectors

Amphenol Nexus Technologies manufactures the complete line of qualified MIL-DTL-55116 audio connectors which are used throughout military and commercial radio systems and intercom systems for ground, vehicle, airborne, and naval communications.

This connector series encompasses waterproof, polarized plugs and receptacles for use in audio frequency circuits at 60 volts maximum potential and 0.5 amperes maximum current. Connectors utilize either crimp sleeve or solder cup contacts. The rigid contacts in the plug connector mate with the pogo-pin, or spring loaded, contacts in the receptacle. In-line plugs and receptacles come with a wire strain relief. Receptacles are also available in panel-mount.

In addition to the standard versions, Amphenol Nexus Technologies also designs and builds a wide variety of custom M55116-type connectors, the TAC series, with options such as PCB contacts, unique shell geometries, grounded and shielded connectors, and right-angle plug connectors. The Tac series are a miniaturized line of M55116 style connectors that meet the same performance requirements as the standard connectors in less than half the size and weight.
