TWINAX/TRIAX CONNECTORS
Twinax/Triax Connectors /
Specifications
Trompeter offers a broad line of connectors manufactured to
meet or exceed the Mil-Specs governing twinax connectors. In
fact, Mil-PRF-49142 was created from the Trompeter concentric
twinax/triax connector design.
The following information reflects the specification requirements
for each family of connectors in both twinax and triax applications.
Use this chart to determine the proper connector type to be used
in your application, based on the environment and electrical
requirements of your design. Trompeter’s technical support team
is available to answer any specification questions you may have.
