6.5 Ethernet Connection
Advanced Navigation offers a 3 m industrial Ethernet cable with a MIL-DTL-38999 Series III connector to create
a rugged connection to the unit. This is supplied as part of the 3 Evaluation Kit, and also a recommended
accessory with the standalone unit. The MIL-DTL-38999 Series III RJ45 end is IP67 rated in mated position.
Figure 7: Ethernet Cable
There are several alternatives and options for differing application needs:
l
If a shorter cable is required, it can be either coiled or cut and re-terminated.
l
For evaluation purposes, a standard Cat5e or better Ethernet cable can be used directly into the unit.
l
If a longer cable is required, a standard Cat5e or better cable can be used with an Amphenol RJF-TV
series connector. This connector uses a MIL-DTL-38999 Series III mating connection in a size 19. The
connector has a normal Orientation Key, and is finished in an RoHS-compliant Black Zinc Nickel finish for
high corrosion resistance. Refer to Amphenol documentation for instructions on how to correctly ter-
minate these connectors.

6.6 IO Connection
The IOconnection is used to provide the power supply and access to a range of interface connections. It can be
achieved with an 6.6.1 IO Unterminated Cable, an 6.6.2 IOBreakout Cable or by building your own cable (see
6.6.3 Custom IO Termination).Connection is made through MIL-DTL-38999 Series III connectors, which
provide reliable and rugged connection under demanding conditions and are rated to IP67 in the mated position
(see 7.5 MIL-DTL-38999 Series IIIConnector Mating).
6.6.1 IO Unterminated Cable
An optional 5 m unterminated cable is available for custom connections. Each individual wire in the
unterminated cable is a colour-coded FEP coated wire. See Pin for details on pin out functions. Custom cable
lengths for unterminated types are available subject to minimum order quantities and lead times; contact the
Sales team for more information
