6588897-7

TE Connectivity AMP Connectors's 6588897-7 redefines Fiber Optic Connectors - Accessories technology for satellite communications. Engineered for space-grade reliability, this radiation-hardened solution maintains signal integrity in extreme orbital environments.Designed as Dust Cap, this aerospace component withstands 100kRad TID. Its patented shielding design reduces single-event upsets by 90% compared to commercial-grade alternatives.Validated for use with LIGHTRAY MPX Connectors, the assembly meets MIL-STD-883J requirements. When integrated with phased array antennas, it maintains <0.3dB PIM distortion across L-band frequencies.The Bulkhead include outgassing <0.1% TML. With 50 impedance matching, it ensures minimal VSWR variation during thermal cycling from -150 C to +125 C.Fabricated from Thermoplastic Elastomer (TPE), the housing passes NASA ASTM E595 testing. Aluminum-beryllium alloy provides optimal strength-to-weight ratio while preventing cold welding in vacuum.The Blue options feature conductive anodization. The black oxide finish maintains <0.85 solar absorptivity for thermal regulation in geostationary orbits.
