Subminiature-C Vacuum Round Cable Assemblies
AGP vacuum compatible connector-to-cable assemblies are fitted with PEEK Subminiature-C female or male connectors on one end, and nine non-terminated color-coded leads at opposite end. Female cable connectors mate directly to the vacuum side of all Subminiature-C UHV and HV feedthroughs, and/or with other PEEK male connector fitted extension cables. The cable’s outer jacket is a woven PEEK monofilament braid producing a nominal outer cable diameter of 0.14 inches. These cable assemblies are fitted with nine, Kapton® insulated 28 AWG leads, each of which is composed of seven 0.005 diameter twisted strands of silver-plated copper wire.
AGP also offers connector-to-connector, female/female UHV rated extension cable assemblies that are 19-inches in length, fitted with PEEK Subminiature-C female connectors at both ends.
Contact-to-cable UHV cable assemblies are an economical in-vacuum connectivity solution, wherein contacts are individually pushed-on to their corresponding feedthrough pins. They are ideally suited for applications requiring single and/or infrequent connection cycles. These UHV cable assemblies are fitted with crimped male or female contacts on one end, and with non-terminated, Kapton insulated, leads at the other.
Caution: Please note that contact-to-cable assemblies are an economical connectivity solution, as such these cables do not include PEEK connectors, nor will they allow PEEK connector installation at a future date. Crimped contacts are too large for insertion through the PEEK connector’s back-piece. Generally, cable wires must be threaded through the connector’s back-piece before contacts are crimped to their respective wires.

Notes |
- Electrical ratings are maximum test values, with feedthrough's vacuum side at ≤ 1x10-4 Torr. Feedthroughs are intended for instrumentation applications carrying low level signal voltage and current.
- For proper heat dissipation, a maximum of 20% of the pins on a feedthrough may carry the maximum pin current at any given time.
- PEEK is a polyether ether ketone thermoplastic.
- Overall assembly ratings must be adjusted to that of its lowest rated component. For cryogenic service, the lowest recommended temperature is -75°C
