The new layout possibilities are coded as “13T13” with 13 contacts size 10, “18T18” with 18 contacts size 10 and “15T6Q2” with 2 contacts size 8, 7 contacts size 16 and 6 contacts size 10. Size 10 contacts can be either concentric twinax or triax type, size 8 can be either coax, concentric twinax, triax or quadrax, and size 16 contact is power.
These new inserts and contacts bring greater integration flexibility to designers while maintaining the form factor of the existing ARINC 600 connector series.
