Cannon’s MKJ Miniature Circular Connectors allow high-speed data, power and signal transmission in an extensive variety of applications and platforms. These connectors are available now from TTI Europe. As the products are less than half the size and weight of standard defence-grade interconnects, the company can produce highly engineered design, reliability and performance, but in a far smaller design package. Cannon's MKJ Series also comes with rear accessory threads or integral band platform for direct attachment of cable shield and overmould.

The connectors are offered in a variety of coupling options which include UN Thread, Double Start, Triple Start, Bayonet and Cannon Breakaway. They are available with rear-release crimp, PC tail or solder cup contacts and are fully intermateable with other miniature circular connectors on the market.

The connectors are field repairable and maintainable, enabling quick fixes, cleaning and reconnections. The connectors offer up to 2,000 mating cycles, giving excellent durability with robust and sustainable plating construction materials. The devices are environmentally sealed using fluorosilicone material for the front interfacial seal and rear wire sealing grommet. The custom cable solutions including overmoulds that are suitable for defence demands in harsh environments.
