MANSFIELD, TX, Mar 13, 2025 – Mouser Electronics, Inc., has commenced stocking RF and EMI components from Molex. The components are designed to improve signal integrity and electromagnetic compatibility for mission-critical aerospace and defense applications.
The connectors and components used in aerospace and defense must meet AS9100, MIL-SPEC, and DO-160 standards. The standards ensure safety and reliability in harsh environments. Filtered connectors play a vital role in safeguarding communications from electromagnetic interference (EMI) and radio-frequency interference (RFI). Ruggedized components ensure reliability across autonomous systems in a range of harsh environments.
Available from Mouser, Molex Fixed RF Coaxial Attenuators deliver consistent power levels and low passive intermodulation (PIM) for high-performance applications. The attenuators are designed with solderless contacts to endure wide temperature ranges, shocks, vibrations, and harsh environmental conditions. They come in fixed RF coaxial types, with power ratings from 0.5 to 100 watts and frequencies from DC to 50 GHz. Available connectors include 2.92mm, N-Type, and SMA, which work with 3.50mm, K-type, and MIL-STD-348 connectors. The attenuators suit applications in aircraft, SATCOM uplinks, radar systems, and wireless communications.
Molex EMI-Filtered High-Performance D-Sub Connectors provide a well-tested solution to mitigate electromagnetic interference in demanding environmental electronic systems. The products improve signal integrity (SI), meet regulatory standards, and feature a compact design streamlining integration while enhancing system performance and dependability. Integrated EMI filters provide additional space on the PCB board, and their one-piece, die-cast connector shells provide a ground-plane shielded interface. The connectors suit flight and engine controls, navigation systems, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV), cellular base stations, and similar applications.
Molex EMI Filter Plates protect against electromagnetic interference (EMI) in high-performance systems. They improve reliability and performance by protecting essential components and enhancing functionality across various lines. Their design removes the need to install separate filters into the bulkhead, which cuts down on assembly time and costs. With space for up to 50 lines in a compact size, the filter plates are more space-efficient than discrete filters. They meet industry standards and are compatible with aerospace, defense, and telecommunications environments.
