Amphenol® JT/LJT
high reliability and high contact density with maximum weight and space savings
Amphenol® LJT and JT Series subminiature cylindrical connectors are qualified to MIL-DTL-38999*, Series I and II respectively. These connectors were developed to meet the needs of the aerospace industries, and provided the impetus for development of the MIL-C-38999 specifications, which recently were superseded by MIL-DTL-38999. Meeting or exceeding MIL-DTL-38999 requirements, Amphenol® JT/LJT connectors feature:
• Lightweight, Space Saving Design
• Contact Protection - 100% scoop-proof LJT design prevents bent pins and short circuits during mating
