Standardized by EN4644 European standard, Radiall's EPX™ has been recognized as the leading rectangular modular connector and used in major commercial and business jet aircrafts.
EPX™ series is designed to cover any application including disconnect panel, Line Replaceable Module (LRM) and galleys and to meet OEMs' most stringent requirements providing:
Flexibility with a broad range of shell styles, one range of inserts, contacts and accessories
Space saving with high density inserts and stackable shells
Time saving and cost effectiveness with modular parts that enable pre-wiring
The EPX™ series is completely modular and expandable with lightweight shells from size 1 to multigang versions. EPX™ inserts will also cover any contact technologies including signal, power, quadrax and fiber optics. EPX™ connectors answer all connecting needs with the use of a limited number of components.
To go one step further in cost effectiveness and innovation, Radiall introduced the first range for aerospace of quick mating connectors: QM series that uses EPX™ inserts and contacts.
