Pegasus: Small, Lightweight, Rugged Connectors
The Pegasus Series is Amphenol Pcd’s latest innovation in small, lightweight, rugged connectors. Designed for use in harsh environments, Pegasus builds on the successful Luminus Aerospace connector with the addition of EMI shielding.
EMI shielding is provided by electroless copper and nickel plate, with a copper alloy spring finger gasket to ensure shell-to-shell conductivity. Tests show between 40db and 60db of attenuation, depending on frequency. This combination of light weight, small size, and EMI shielding makes Pegasus the ideal choice where protection against ambient noise transients, or suppression of emitted noise is required, and space and weight are at a premium.
