New military and commercial applications are demanding a reduction in connector size and weight without a loss of performance. Amphenol NEXUS Technologies has met that demand with its new Miniature M55116-Type TAC Connectors for soldier-worn applications, radio systems, and ruggedized communications systems.

TAC Connectors are designed and manufactured to the exacting specifications of MIL-DTL-55116 requirements at half the size of the standard connectors.
