AMP MCP Hybrid Coax Connectors

TE Connectivity’s (TE) AMP MCP hybrid coax connectors utilize existing unsealed AMP MCP connectors to provide a coaxial data connection up to 9 GHz and nine signal/power MCON 1.2 CB terminals to enable the implementation of high-resolution cameras within trucks and buses. Designed for unsealed firewalls and bulkhead passthrough applications with AMP MCP housing, the AMP MCP hybrid coax connectors are more specifically used for connections that pass through the firewall within a truck or bus to connect the front and rear cameras on the vehicle. This reduces complexity when adding a coax line through the truck firewall.

These industrial connectors utilize TE's widely available and industry-proven MCON 1.2 clean body (CB) terminals as well as the MATE-AX terminals for reliable quality and performance with self-termination capabilities. The connector design is easy to assemble in existing firewall frames which provides potential cost and time savings for customers who are making upgrades to their vehicle designs. A hybrid design with both coaxial data and power in one connection offers increased design flexibility and can help save space.
