LJT and JT Series subminiature cylindrical
connectors are qualified to MIL-DTL-38999*, Series I and II
respectively. These connectors were developed to meet
the needs of the aerospace industries, and provided the
impetus for development of the MIL-C-38999 specifications,
which recently were superseded by MIL-DTL-38999. Meet-
ing or exceeding MIL-DTL-38999 requirements, Amphenol

JT/LJT
the subminiature cylindrical
for every application
Components
Shell components are impact extruded or machined
bar stock aluminum. Standard plating on shell com-
ponents is cadmium over nickel. Many finishes are
optional (see “Specifications” page 3). Hermetic seal
receptacles are available in carbon steel or stain-
less steel shells. Dependable 5 key/keyway polar-
ization with bayonet lock coupling is incorporated to
aid and assure positive mating.
Insert material is a rigid dielectric with excellent elec-
trical characteristics, providing durable protection for
molded-in solder type contacts. Contrasting letter
or number designations are used on insert faces.
A fluorinated silicone interfacial seal wafer is fea-
tured on the mating face of “crimp type pin” inserts.
This assures complete electrical isolation of pins
when connector halves are mated. In addition, a
main joint gasket is installed in the receptacle for
moisture sealing between connector halves. Both
features are also available for hermetic receptacles.

Contacts
Maximum design flexibility is built into the JT/LJT
Series, with a minimum of 2 to a maximum of 128
circuits per connector in a wide variety of contact
arrangements. Contacts are available in sizes 8, 10,
12, 16, 20, 22, 22D and 22M with standard 50 mi-
cro inch minimum gold plating (100 micro inches
optional). All socket contacts are probe proof. Crimp
type rear removable contacts are featured in JT-R
and LJT-R connectors. Solder termination contacts
are also available, as well as PCB, wire wrap, ther-
mocouple, fiber optic, coaxial, triaxial and twinax
contact options.

Optional Features
High temperature capability of 392°F is available only
in JTS or LJTS crimp type connectors. High tem-
perature versions feature gold plated contacts, high
temperature shell plating, stainless steel coupling
nut spring, and epoxy inserts/fluorinated silicone
grommet combination. Standard temperature capa-
bility for both solder and crimp is 302°F.
The JTN or LJTN type connectors are available for
