BKAD/E connectors represent a major milestones in
presenting a new rack and panel connector for
support of the air transportation market.
Several important design concerns have been ad-
dressed and solved in this new series. High mating
forces of pluggable modules in a rack have been
reduced by approximately two-thirds.
This new connector is totally intermateable and
intermountable with ARINC 600 connectors now in
the field.
The BKAF permits the user to easily replace a
contact in case of problems, rather than disas-
semble the entire connector--it is available with
size 22 contacts in wrap post or solder-tail ver-
sions. The system maintains the advantages of low
insertion force technology incorporated in all ARINC
600 connectors.
The low insertion force contacts are also inter-
changeable with the contacts used in the DPX
series and permit retrofit of existing equipment.
Pos-Aline Connector Construction Feature
In the ARINC 600 connector series, Size 22 con-
The result is that the complement of contacts for
the plug connectors will consist of pin contacts for
size 22 and socket contacts for all others. The
receptacle contacts will be just the reverse, socket
contact for size 22 and pin contacts for the
balance.
tacts are the only size that utilize this design
feature. The hooded socket extends from its in-
sulator while the pin contacts are shrouded by its
front insulator.
All other contacts used in this series employ stan-
dard contact design.
