MMC

Designed for tight spaces on ruggedized equipment

MMC connector — low-profile breakaway, IP68, 24 contacts

• LOW PROFILE
• BREAKAWAY
• EMC REINFORCEMENT

The MMC is a low-profile, IP68 breakaway circular connector with 24 contacts, designed for tight installation spaces on ruggedized equipment. Its stainless steel shell and 360° EMI/RFI shielding make it a reliable choice for land defense platforms, C4ISR systems, and any application where a low-profile connector must resist harsh field conditions.

Low-profile breakaway connector for space-constrained ruggedized platforms

The MMC meets the requirements of ruggedized equipment where space is limited without compromising reliability. Its breakaway locking protects equipment from accidental cable pulls. IP68 sealed in both connected and disconnected states, resistant to hydrocarbons and oils, it is rated from -55°C to +125°C for continuous operation in harsh environments.
