71-482354-61P

Overview

The 71-482354-61P is a circular MIL-spec plug connector manufactured by Amphenol Aerospace Operations. It features a bayonet coupling mechanism and an aluminum shell with cadmium plating. The component utilizes crimp termination for pin contacts, which are gold-plated to ensure reliable signal transmission. Designed for cable mounting in a straight orientation, this connector belongs to the 38999 Aluminum series and complies with MIL-DTL-38999 II standards.

Feature Summary

• Bayonet locking system for rapid secure connection
• Cadmium-plated aluminum housing for corrosion resistance
• Gold-plated crimp contacts for low contact resistance

Applications

• Avionics systems
• Radar equipment
• Missile guidance systems

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific shell size and contact arrangement against the official datasheet before procurement. Confirm that the crimp tooling matches the contact specifications. Ensure environmental sealing requirements align with the connector's design capabilities. Cross-reference the manufacturer part number with legacy equivalents if applicable to existing designs.

Selection Notes

Select this model when a high-density circular connector with a bayonet lock is required. Consider the aluminum construction for weight-sensitive applications. Verify that the operating temperature range meets the system's environmental demands. Ensure the mating connector shares the same shell size and gender configuration.

Part Context

This component is part of the Brush 55302 family of rectangular connectors or potentially the 38999 series depending on the specific datasheet classification. Amphenol Aerospace produces these interconnects for harsh environment defense applications. The product line supports avionics, communications, and missile systems requiring robust performance under vibration and extreme temperatures.

Replacement Considerations

Check for direct cross-references within the MIL-DTL-38999 II standard. Verify compatibility with existing mating interfaces and panel cutouts. Ensure substitute parts maintain the same electrical ratings and environmental sealing properties.
