Amphenol-Air LB's VG products are approved according to the German Armed Forces' defense equipment standard. They provide reliable power, data, and signal connectivity in harsh environments for critical systems that must not fail under any circumstances. The stringent requirements and tests of the defense equipment standard ensure quality in areas such as functionality, reliability, durability, and safety. Applications worldwide, with their diverse environments (e.g., high humidity, contact with various liquids, dirt or dust, coastal areas with salty air or deep-sea waters, high altitudes or extreme temperatures, heavy mechanical stress, long operating times), demand particularly robust materials. Sensitive communication systems require EMC protection, and in field conditions, the connectors must also withstand shocks and vibrations. Amphenol-Air LB is one of the strongest partners of the defense industry. In close collaboration with companies in the sector, we develop innovative products that meet the challenges of the future. As a global market leader in connectors, Amphenol-Air LB offers a comprehensive range of approved VG connectors, manufactured at our Saarlouis site.
