Connect your Contacts with Confidence
PkZ® Contact Housings
PkZ Contacts are available for a variety of housings creating new performance possibilities across trusted commercial and military housing platforms. With patented constant impedance technology, PkZs continue to evolve into higher levels of performance bringing new life to legacy connector housings.
The PkZ contact expands the boundaries of 50-ohm and 75-ohm performance for DIN 41612, LRM, D-Subminiature, MIL-DTL-38999, Mighty Mouse, and ARINC 600 housings with high frequency performance contacts in size-12 and size-16 and low loss performance in size-8 contacts. System performance can easily be upgraded with the PkZ without expensive changes to connector housing schemes or system architecture. The dynamic evolution of the PkZ product line provides a path to future-proof your system while retaining the connector housings you trust.
