AMPSEAL 16 Connectors with MATE-AX

TE Connectivity’s (TE) AMPSEAL 16 connectors with MATE-AX coaxial terminals deliver an analog signal of up to 6 GHz and digital data transmission to reliably connect antennas, cameras, sensors, and displays within heavy-duty commercial and industrial vehicles. Their easy-to-use, flexible design utilizes widely available automotive-standard coaxial cable and supports a wide range of communication protocols, including APIX 2/3, FPD Link III, GMSL 2/3, GNSS, GPS, 4G, and LTE.

The integration of a family seal into the housing design not only eases assembly but can also reduce manufacturing and service costs by eliminating expensive heat-shrink tubing and time-consuming application. This product family meets all the vibration, mechanical shock, and temperature requirements of rugged vehicles by utilizing the proven design of AMPSEAL 16 housings along with the superior signal performance of MATE-AX miniature coaxial terminals.
