Product catalog summary

Introduction
Smiths Connectors introduces the KVPX Series, a high-performance embedded system interconnect designed for harsh environments, adhering to VITA standard design requirements. Utilizing Hypertac hyperboloid contact technology, it offers exceptional tolerance to shock and vibration, low insertion forces, high current ratings, and minimal fretting corrosion.

Specifications
The KVPX Series is compatible with VITA 46 and 48 standards, supporting data rates of 6.25 to 10 Gbps. It features a 100 Ohm impedance for differential pair configurations and offers various module types, including differential, single-ended, and power modules. The connectors are available in half and full module sizes, with 72 and 144 contacts respectively, and a pitch of 1.8mm.

Technical Characteristics
The connectors are designed with a rugged, high-speed, high-density interconnect system. They feature a compliant press-fit termination style, with daughtercard lengths of 1.8mm and backplane lengths of 3.3mm. The connectors are plated with 50 μin gold over nickel and have a temperature rating of -55°C to 125°C.

Performance
The KVPX Series is resistant to shock and vibration, with a mechanical shock rating of 50G and random vibration resistance of 11.95 Grms. It ensures low insertion/extraction forces and minimal contact resistance, with industry-leading mating cycles and a self-cleaning wipe action for better signal integrity.

Features
The connectors incorporate a faceplate to protect daughtercard pins and utilize space-qualified 0.4mm hyperboloid sockets for enhanced reliability. They are engineered for top performance in aerospace, defense, and industrial applications where failure is not an option.

Ordering Information
The document provides detailed ordering information, including connector type, module size, module type variant, termination style, and plating options. The KVPX Series offers a flexible modular design for standard 3U and 6U configurations, as well as custom configurations.
