The 806 Series connectors meet—and in many cases exceed—the performance requirements of MIL-DTL-38999 Series III. Independent testing confirms their advanced electrical, mechanical, and environmental performance, making them ideal for demanding applications in the aerospace, military, industrial, transportation, and harsh environments.
These components incorporate multiple mechanical innovations, including robust insert retention, radial sealing, triple-ribbed rubber gaskets, and an integrated anti-disconnection system. A redesigned ratchet mechanism, along with a reduced thread ramp angle and optimized thread pitch, significantly improves mating security under vibration.
Despite their compact design, the 806 Series devices offer high contact density, supporting 22HD and 20HD signal contacts, size 8 power contacts, and high-speed octaxial, quadrax, and fiber optic configurations. Available options include hermetically sealed, high-temperature, filtered, and fiber optic versions, as well as factory-terminated cable assemblies.
The connectors also incorporate Glenair's ultra-lightweight Nano shield termination band, which maximizes shielding effectiveness while minimizing weight. Other enhancements include a top-hat insulator for precise alignment and a radial O-ring sealing interface, which increases EMI performance, durability, and ease of mating.
