Ruggedized Interconnects for Hypersonic Technology

As the pressure for faster, more heat-resistant technology emerges and teams explore what is possible to make the next engineering marvel a reality, TE Connectivity is here as your trusted partner to get your design over the finish line. Whether it be through custom assemblies or parts ranging from cables, connectors, engineered polymer solutions, relays, sub-assemblies, wires or more, we’re here to make connecting critical components in a tight form factor easier than ever before. 

SEEKER: Connections in a seeker must meet extreme heat and size requirements while communicating high-speed sensor data and temperature in a dense, electronic-rich area of the missile. TE cables, connectors, and optics can be molded to match nearly every size and shape delivering high performance in a small form factor to withstand high temperatures close to the skin. In addition, our low-weight, high-powered sensors deliver superior performance in crowded areas to help ensure that communication, detection, control, and navigation data are available. Combined with our broad product offering of lightweight VPX connectors, MIL-SPEC wire and cable, and more, you can count on our diverse portfolio, rich history and engineering capabilities to help you save time creating your bill of material.

 
CONTROL CENTER: High-speed processing is critical to a missile’s control center as it manages communication, control and navigation data from radar sensors that are vital to electronic warfare. With high-speed, standardized, VPX board-to-board connectors engineered to power your control center during some of the most demanding heat and vibration environments, TE Connectivity’s interconnects make managing hundreds of connections to the control center easier than ever before. Our ability to customize for size, weight and even shape gives you a variety of form factors and MIL-SPEC standards from one trusted partner.  

LAUNCHER: Today’s launcher requires a significant level of power, durability and protection from outcast and deterioration to survive the full lifecycle of a missile. We understand these requirements and have a track record of performing in high-heat, high-vibration environments because our connectors are protected with EMI shielding and more. We’re also able to offer harnesses to make wiring the launcher simple, combining nearly 20 different cables at once. Whether your needs start at the launcher or the canister, TE has decades of experience powering military equipment on land and at sea. Our MIL-SPEC interconnect solutions are designed to withstand some of the harshest environments, helping reduce the risk of failures in the field.
