with exceptional versatility in the harshest environments. Small, lightweight and highly reliable, our D38999-
D38999-Style Series I (KJL)
ITT Cannon KJL 38999-Style Series I connectors offer high-density contact
arrangements in a light-weight miniature circular connector. ITT Cannon KJL
series connectors are an industry standard for military and aerospace
applications. The environmentally sealed KJL series features quick-mating,
three-point bayonet coupling and operates across a wide temperature range.
D38999-Style Series II (KJ)
ITT Cannon KJ 38999-Style
Series
II are a weight-reduced and low profile circular
connector ideally suited for avionic applications where space and weight are prime
considerations. It offers high-density contact arrangements in a light-weight miniature
circular connector. ITT Cannon KJ series connectors feature a quick-mating, three-
point bayonet coupling, are environmentally-sealed and operate across a wide
temperature range. ITT Cannon KJ series mil spec connectors were originally designed
for military vehicles and are now industry standard aerospace and military connectors.
