Industrial & Rugged Cable Assemblies We've Built
We have provided custom cable assembly solutions to support a wide variety of unique requirements for industrial and rugged systems — including a low-profile, right-angle micro USB cable engineered with custom tooling to fit a client’s small form factor system, with the interface built upside-down to match their non-standard connector orientation.
Additional Manufacturing Services
Many industrial equipment manufacturers also source complementary assembly solutions from Compatible Cable.
Frequently Asked Questions
Questions About Industrial & Rugged Cable Assemblies
What are MIL-DTL-38999 connectors used for?
MIL-DTL-38999 circular connectors are commonly specified for industrial, military, aerospace, and transportation applications requiring high connector density, dependable environmental sealing, and long-term reliability in demanding operating conditions. They are widely used where rugged connector performance is essential in harsh environments.
Why are custom connector interface assemblies used in rugged equipment?
Industrial equipment sometimes requires modified connector orientations, low-profile interfaces, or specialized mechanical configurations that are not available as standard commercial products. Custom connector interface assemblies can simplify installation while meeting the physical constraints of the equipment.
Which connector manufacturers are commonly supported?
Assemblies are available using connector systems from Amphenol, Conxall, ITT Cannon, Switchcraft, JST, Molex, Hirose, JAE, and TE Connectivity, depending on your project requirements.
