offers more versatility & options
than any other interconnection family
The Tri-Start Connector is the high performance choice

in the D38999 Family.
Originally designed in order to increase the performance lev-
els of MIL-DTL-38999 Series I and II, the Series III was cre-
ated to meet high performance connector criteria.
Dynamic features for performance and reliability that were
needed for military, aerospace and ground vehicle applica-
tions were designed into the Series III that include:
• Rapid coupling via a triple-start thread
• Shell-to-shell or metal-to-metal bottoming
Fiber Optic Multi-Channel D38999
• Improved EMI shielding
The Tri-Start Family of connectors has grown and expanded
since its original addition to the 38999 series in order to meet
ever-evolving interconnection product needs. Today, the Tri-
Start family has styles and options that cover a very wide
range to meet not only the highest performance needs of
space applications, but also general duty connector needs.
The Tri-Start Connector Series is second to none in
terms of versatility and customer options.
The broad porfolio includes Tri-Starts with:
• Aluminum and nickel plated stainless steel shells

Designed for Performance

Numerous advantages in performance capability are designed
into the Amphenol Tri-Start Connector. A positive metal to metal
coupling design, grounding fingers, and electroless nickel plat-
ing provide superior EMI shielding capability of 65 dB minimum
at 10 GHz.
Box Mount Receptacle Acme threads provide coupling durability. Thicker wall sections
and a greater coupling surface area improve strength and shock
Flange Mounting Plug resistance. Blunting of the thread on both the coupling nut and
receptacle eliminates cross coupling. The connector quickly
mates and self locks in a 360° turn of the coupling nut.
Elongated mounting holes permit the Tri-Start Connector to
intermount with various existing MIL-spec box or wall mount re-
ceptacles, giving it a design replacement advantage.
Shells of stainless steel, or cadmium over nickel plating prevent
severe corrosion. Resistance is tested through exposure to a
Jam Nut Receptacle 500 hour salt spray. Composite versions provide protection from
salt spray exposure for 2000 hours. Other finish options are avail-
able; see how to order Tri-Start metal and Tri-Start Composite.
Recessed pins minimize potential contact damage in this 100%
scoop-proof connector. In a blind mating application, mating shells
cannot “scoop” the pins and cause a shorting or bending of con-
tacts.
The design of the Amphenol Tri-Start interfacial seal meets the
MIL-DTL-38999 Series III requirements for electrolytic erosion
Lanyard Release Plug resistance.
Line Receptacle A rigid dielectric insert with excellent electrical characteristics
provides durable protection to the contacts. The socket contacts
are probe proof, and all contacts are rear removable. They are
plated in the standard 50 micro inches minimum gold, with 100
micro inches as an option and are available in standard Tri-Start
insert arrangements and special Pyle® insert arrangements in
sizes 10 power, 12, 16, 20 and 22D contacts. Special insert pat-

The latest in MIL-DTL-38999, Series III Connector Technology is the CLUTCH-LOK. Designed For parts with MS Stamping
for high vibration and harsh environments such as aircraft gas turbine engines, it is also an use MTV26( ) part number as
ideal choice for demanding applications such as aircraft, space and military ground vehicles. follow:
The unique clutch design of the Amphenol CLUTCH-LOK means that you don’t have to MTV26RK-XX-XXX
MTV26RS-XX-XXX
compromise the need for quick, smooth mating of plugs and receptacles in order to get
increased uncoupling torque.
The CLUTCH-LOK has proven to not only remain mated and pass all the Series III specifica-
tion requirements - it also has proven to actually tighten itself under vibration. This is a
powerful advantage over the traditionally high vibration application connectors. The CLUTCH-
LOK is also a tremendous advantage in inaccessible, hard to reach areas where mating
torque is difficult to apply and complete coupling is not verifiable by inspection.
CLUTCH-LOK features and benefits:
• High degree of differential torque
• Infinite free coupling and positive metal-to-metal bottoming with each mating
• No settling back to the next ratchet tooth
• Available with stainless steel shells and Class K firewall inserts
• All the advantages of MIL-DTL-38999 Series III including EMI/RFI shielding, electrolytic erosion
resistance and contact protection with recessed pins
• Enhanced connector performance at affordable prices
• Completely intermateable with all existing MIL-DTL-38999 Series III connectors
• Fully QPL’d

TV Breakaway Fail Safe Connectors
quick-disconnect with an axial pull of lanyard
Amphenol Tri-Start Breakaway Fail Safe Con-

nectors provide unequalled performance in
environments requiring instant disengage-
ment.
Designed to provide quick disconnect of a
connector plug and receptacle with an axial
pull on the lanyard, the “Breakaway” Fail Safe
connector family offers a wide range of
electrical and mechanical features:
• Instant decoupling and damage free
separation
• Completely intermateable with standard
receptacles (D38999/20 and /24)
• Inventory support commonality through the
use of standard insert arrangements and
contacts TYPE 2 TYPE 6 TYPE 1
Breakaway un-mating is initiated by applying a
pull force to the lanyard which causes the oper- Amphenol offers a variety of lanyard plug styles including MIL-STD-1760
ating sleeve on the plug to move away from the types 1, 2 and 6 for Stores Management applications.
receptacle. Coupling segments on the plug then move
away from the mating receptacle while expanding, thus releasing the receptacle.
After completion of the un-mating sequence, spring compression returns the
sleeve and segments to their original positions. Un-mating of the plug may also
be accomplished by normal rotation of the coupling ring without affecting the
breakaway capability.
The Tri-Start Breakaway Fail Safe connector features which provide EMI/EMP
shielding in excess of MIL-DTL-38999 Series III requirements:
• Solid metal-to-metal coupling
• EMI grounding fingers
• Conductive finishes
Amphenol Breakaway Fail Safe connectors are qualified to MIL-DTL-38999/

29, /30 and /31 (for MIL-STD-1760 Stores Management applications). In fact,
Amphenol offers more qualified Breakaway shell size and insert combina- Breakaway with Coax Contacts
tions than any other QPL supplier.
In addition to standard Breakaway connectors, Amphenol also manufactures
custom breakaway connectors including those with:
• Highly durable non-metallic operating sleeves in a variety of lengths and
diameters
• Increased pull-force capability
• Low-profile designs
• Custom lanyard lengths and backshells
• Low force separation capabilities
• Low insertion/separation force contacts
• Non-cadmium finishes
Whether you need a standard Breakaway, one of our custom Breakaways or, a
unique Breakaway design, please contact your local Amphenol representative.

universal “header assembly” for flex print or
PC board mounting
Mounts to all MIL-DTL-38999 and
MIL-C-26482 Connectors
The use of connectors with printed circuit ter-

mination is rapidly gaining popularity due to
the rise of high volume, vapor phase or wave
solder manufacturing processes. Termination
of this style of connector to flex print or a
printed circuit board represents a major cost
in the manufacturing process for users. When
adding flex or printed circuit board assem-
blies to an expensive filter or filter/transient
protection connector, the total cost of a failed
solder joint, a bent pin, or an unanticipated electrical failure becomes prohibitive. Headers provide easy

coax, twinax and triax contacts,
ground plane connectors, press fit connectors
Amphenol MIL-DTL-38999 Series III connectors are the most
commonly used connectors for incorporation of shielded contacts
along with traditional crimp contacts and also with contacts for data
bus, LAN and coax/triax/twinax transmission lines with conductive
inserts that ground the outer conductor of the coax, triax, twinax
contact to the shell. These connectors are sold “less contacts”. They
will accommodate size 8 coax, triax or twinax contacts or size 12 and
16 coax contacts.
The insert availability chart on pages 6 and 7 indicates the patterns
that are available in a ground plane version, (see those designated Concentric Twinax Contacts
with a star symbol), and consult how to order pages for ordering Qualified to M39029/90 and /91
procedures.
CONNECTORS WITH SHIELDED COAX CONTACTS

For shielded wire applications, coaxial contacts can be incorporated
into MIL-DTL-38999 connectors. Designed-in crimp or solder types
are available to fit various RG and special cables. High performance
coaxial contacts eliminate discontinuities or
impedance variations due to movement of
parts under axial load.
Shielded Coax Contacts
CONNECTORS WITH CONCENTRIC
TWINAX CONTACTS
The size 8 concentric twinax contact was
developed for use in MIL-STD-1553 Airborne
multiplex data bus applications which require
high performance interconnect characteristics
in multi-pin connectors. Ideal for this applica-
tion need is the high performance Tri-Start
connector with its fully scoop-proof feature of 38999 Series III Connector
recessed pins. The concentric twinax contact is with Twinax Contacts and
crimp terminable to twisted-shielded cable. Standard Contacts
SHIELDED TRIAX CONTACTS

Triax contacts have three conductors and are
offered in sizes 8, 10 and 12. They provide
additional shielding when terminated to triax
cable having solid or stranded center conduc-
tors. Each of the three conductors of the triax
contact is separated by dielectric insulation to

TRI-START FAMILY OF CONNECTORS:
• Deep Reach Shells – for increased panel
thicknesses.
• Stand-off Flange Shells – for attachment to

printed circuit boards
• Connectors with Integral Strain Reliefs –

cost savings through integration of strain relef
to the shell.
• Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Protection –

Tri-Start with Integral Strain Relief
Amphenol has developed a design feature for
the Tri-Start connector which will protect
sensitive components from Electrostatic
Discharge without diodes, varistors, gas
tubes, or “experimental” semiconductive
Tri-Start Jam Nut Receptacle
materials. These connectors utilize the with Deep Reach Shell
Faraday Cage principal to shunt electrostatic
discharge events to the conductive enclosure
on which the connector is mounted, thus
never allowing the high voltage, high current
discharge event to reside on any contacts.
The ESD protected connectors have the same
physical envelope as their standard counter-
parts, and do not require special mounting or
terminating techniques. All of the contacts
remain fully functional, and electrical charac-
teristics such as capacitance are not effected. Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Testing
