INTRODUCING
VITA 87
HIGH DENSITY
CIRCULAR MT
CONNECTORS
• Enables high speed and bandwidth needed in
a smaller space for next generation ruggedized
systems
TARGET MARKETS
• Aerospace
• Ground Based Systems
• Avionics Systems
APPLICATIONS
• High density circular military fiber optics cable assemblies
• High density optical add on / options cards
• High density ruggedized applications
in general using MIL-Std 38999
KEY BENEFITS
• HIGH DENSITY
Can accommodate most next generation high
density ports and mating card slots
• EASY
Standard interconnect system uses
38999 circular connectors with MT inserts
• LOWER COST/MAXIMUM AVAILABILITY
Advantages of VITA 87 and SOSA standardization
eorts versus sole sourced products
• FLEXIBLE
Can be used with both standard MT
and expanded beam / lensed MT
• VERSATILE
12 and 24 fiber options available,resulting in
potentially the highest density in the industry
TE Connectivity (TE)’s VITA 87 Mil Circular 38999 Fiber Optic Interconnect product line oers a much higher
density Mil Circular fiber optics option that is more aligned with industry architecture needs. These new
architectures require considerably higher density to fit into industry standard card slots.
These products will also be a part of global VITA and SOSA standards, ensuring supply and enabling
customers to confidently design this product into their next generation systems. VITA 87 fills this need and is
a significant improvement over previous oerings.
