CT2631-S-0

The CT2631-S-0 from Cal Test Electronics revolutionizes Banana and Tip Connectors - Jacks, Plugs technology with its aerospace-grade construction. Developed for satellite payload systems, it maintains stable RF performance across -55 C to +175 C operational extremes.This Banana Plug, Stackable connector implements quad-redundant contact springs that guarantee continuous connectivity under 15G vibration. The hermetically sealed version maintains <5 10^-8 atm cc/s helium leak rate.Male variants feature rhodium-plated contacts that exhibit <5m contact resistance variation after 500 thermal cycles. The non-magnetic construction prevents interference with sensitive instrumentation.Machined to Standard Banana specifications with sub-micron surface finish, the interface achieves VSWR <1.1:1 up to 40GHz. The diamond-like carbon coating reduces wear to <0.1 m per 10,000 cycles.The Free Hanging (In-Line) configuration includes integral anti-vibration lockwire provisions per NASA-STD-8739.4. The titanium hardware withstands 2000-hour salt fog exposure per ASTM B117.Utilizing Solder technology, the connection system passes MIL-STD-1344 Method 3009.1 shock testing. The diffusion-bonded interface maintains <0.1dB insertion loss variation in orbital thermal cycling.Sheathed materials are space-qualified with total mass loss <1.0% and collected volatile condensable materials <0.1% per ESA ECSS-Q-ST-70-02C. The radiation-resistant formulation withstands 100Mrad TID.Black markings are laser-etched for permanent identification in vacuum environments. The high-emissivity coatings maintain thermal balance in spacecraft thermal control systems.Designed for 12 AWG wiring, the strain relief system prevents microphonic noise in sensitive sensor circuits. The clamping force is calibrated to 2% accuracy for consistent performance.
