Aptiv\u2019s Winchester Interconnect Launches VITA 67.2 RF Connector Product Line for High-Density Aerospace and Defense Systems<\/b><\/p>\n

Connectors put up to eight RF channels inside a single Open VPX slot, reducing external cabling and accelerating field repair for radar, electronic warfare, and intelligence platforms<\/i><\/p>\n

SCHAFFHAUSEN, Switzerland–(BUSINESS WIRE<\/a>)–
\nAptiv PLC (NYSE: APTV), a global industrial technology company and Winchester Interconnect, an Aptiv company and leading supplier of high-performance interconnect solutions for mission critical applications, today launched a VITA 67.2 RF connector product line that places up to eight high-frequency signal channels directly inside a standard Open VPX backplane slot. By eliminating most of the external coaxial cabling traditionally required in aerospace and defense systems, the connectors make room for more compute, more sensors, and faster signals inside the same enclosure.<\/p>\n

Aptiv\u2019s Winchester Interconnect introduces its VITA 67.2 RF connector line, delivering up to eight high-density RF channels in a single Open VPX slot to streamline cabling and enable faster field repair across aerospace and defense applications, including radar, electronic warfare, and intelligence systems.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\nThe tradeoff between bandwidth and space has become a central design challenge for modern defense electronics. Radar arrays, signals intelligence receivers, and electronic warfare payloads must handle more frequencies and channels at once, while platform integrators face tighter size, weight, and power budgets than the previous generation. Routing RF cabling on the outside of the chassis adds mass, slows field repair, and introduces points of failure during shock and vibration. Moving those signal paths inside the connector solves all three at once, which is one reason VITA 67.2 has become a standard reference for designs aligned with the Sensor Open Systems Architecture (SOSA), the open-standards framework now shaping the next decade of U.S. defense procurement.<\/p>\n

\n“With the addition of VITA 67.2 solutions to our growing line of multiport gangmate interconnect products, we are further solidifying our ability to support next-generation high-density RF applications,” said Leslie Sullivan, Director of Product Management. “This latest addition allows us to further expand our robust, high-performance interconnect portfolio while offering customers reliable, space-saving solutions for use in today’s demanding aerospace and defense platforms.”<\/p>\n
