Aerospace systems operate under some of the most demanding conditions. From intense vibration and wide temperature fluctuations to moisture, dust and constant electrical noise, every component must perform without compromise. Ensuring long-term reliability means choosing interconnect solutions that meet strict military-grade standards, resist environmental and mechanical stress and protect signal integrity across mission-critical systems. As the industry accelerates toward electrified platforms like more electric aircraft (MEA) and electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) systems, connector design and validation must also adapt to support higher electrical loads and system complexity.
Meeting these challenges requires advanced connector engineering that delivers performance without trade-offs. Aerospace applications demand compact, rugged solutions that combine environmental sealing, secure latching and precision shielding—all while minimizing weight and footprint. Success depends on deep materials expertise, adherence to strict industry standards and the ability to design for high-density, high-speed signal transmission under extreme operating conditions.
Molex and AirBorn bring decades of aerospace and defense experience to every design, offering connector solutions that are purpose-built for reliability, durability and performance. Our portfolio includes micro-miniature and high-density connectors, rugged flex circuits, lightweight cable assemblies and robust power supplies—all engineered to meet or exceed MIL and IPC standards. With high pin densities, secure power distribution and lightweight construction, these solutions enable compact, efficient systems that perform reliably in the harshest environments—where failure is not an option.
