As an innovative connection solution characterized by a 3-to-1 locking mechanism and outstanding performance in demanding applications, the ODU AMC® T has been inspiring users in military and civilian environments for several years.

ODU has expanded its popular product line with a robust, reliable and versatile connectivity solution specifically designed to meet the demanding requirements of the military, security and commercial aviation industries.

First-class features and design

The new ODU AMC® T square flange receptacles have a rectangular flange that is compatible with the cut-out dim. of MIL-DTL 38999. The square solution is currently available for sizes 09 and 12, each with seven different inserts. This enables a flexible adjustment that can be fully adapted to the specific requirements of the applications.

For maximum flexibility, ODU offers the square flange solution as a standard or reverse gender type with three connection options: Backshell, Crimp-Sleeve / Band-it or PCB. Assembly is possible from both the front and rear using four M3 screws and a MIL-C-38999 sealing.

Easy integration and field assembly

Communication devices are often retrofitted into military vehicles or upgraded in the field. For this purpose, drilling holes for cables and device assembly is carried out on site as needed. Square flange mounting makes this type of installation easier because the holes and distances can be standardized.

ODU has also made the integration of the new square flange solution into existing systems as simple as possible. The mounting dimensions of the ODU AMC® Series T Square Flange Receptacles comply with the standard specified by MIL-DTL-38999, allowing the receptacles to fit seamlessly into existing cut-outs. By simply replacing an existing interface with an ODU AMC® T connector system, the benefits of the product line can be easily incorporated into existing systems.
