TE Connectivity Electronic Warfare & C5ISR Interconnect Solutions
TE Connectivity’s Aerospace, Defense & Marine division delivers one of the industry’s most comprehensive interconnect portfolios for Electronic Warfare and C5ISR programs. Systems like Next Generation Jammer, Integrated Topside, CIRCM, and JCREW demand rugged, cutting-edge technology engineered for the ever-increasing complexity of the electromagnetic battlespace. Spanning copper, fiber optic, and wireless technologies, TE’s EW portfolio addresses three core engineering imperatives: reducing Size, Weight, and Power (SWaP) through composite enclosures, lightweight harnessing, and modular packaging while offering electromechanical and wire/cable accessories to complete mission-critical electronic warfare systems.

The TE Connectivity DEUTSCH D38999 is TE’s primary EW I/O connector, qualified to MIL-DTL-38999 Series III for airborne, shipboard, and ground vehicle platforms. An anti-vibration over-travel coupling with anti-fire locking mechanism provides positive retention under sustained shock and vibration. Shell sizes, materials, insert arrangements, EMI filtering, and sealing variants give design engineers full configuration flexibility.

Raychem heat shrinkable tubing and boots from TE Connectivity is a critical harness protection material across airborne EW pods, shipboard C5ISR systems, and ground vehicle JCREW installations. TE’s Raychem line covers the full range of military harnessing requirements: dual-wall constructions with adhesive liners for sealed, moisture-resistant protection at connector backshells and splice points; single-wall fluoropolymer tubing for tight-routing, high-temperature environments; and mastic-lined variants for applications where waterproof sealing under pressure is required. All series are qualified to MIL-DTL-23053, providing the spec traceability demanded by DoD programs. ICC stocks multiple Raychem heat shrink series across a broad range of diameters and colors.
