Interconnect Technologies & Solutions for the Transportation Industry
For over 90 years, ITT has been developing innovative solutions for harsh environment
applications. We have a proven track record of demonstrating our expertise and commitment
to the transportation industry, offering the broadest portfolio of interconnect products.
Off-Road / Heavy Vehicle
Our interconnect range include sealed circulars, plastic and metal shell bayonet coupling
circulars, miniature metal shell circulars, PC board header connectors and sensor and direct
device connectors. ITT is also a systems supplier, providing value-added module and harness
assemblies.
In addition to our VBN series,
we also offer these connectivity solutions:
Cannon APD
In-line and bulkhead sensors resistant
to harsh environmental conditions
(contaminants, vibration and shock).
Cannon CA-Bayonet
Signal and power connectors with
exceptional sealing against the ingress
of fluids and will withstand the effects of
high vibrations.
Cannon Trident
Versatile range of electrical connectors based on a
standard contact design. Options include; industrial grade,
harsh environment and shielded circulars.
