The Amphe-Power® Family of Connectors
For High Power Applications
The Amphe-Power® Series consists of three of the time-tested and reliable families of
Amphenol Industrial Connectors, all of which are MIL-5015 styles, medium to heavy
duty cylindricals. These series, enhanced with RADSOK® sockets, can now handle up
to 50% higher amperages. Current Amphe-Power® product lines support from 50A to
1000A continuous duty.
AMPHE-POWER® P-LOK
• Rapid mating with a push-pull, spring loaded coupling system -
audible & tactile confirmation of full mating.
• Environmental sealing to IP67 specification levels - front and rear
O-ring seals and gaskets as well as compression grommets
designed to seal on the cable jacket.
• Neoprene inserts are bonded to the connector shell for ease of
assembly.
• One piece keyed aluminum shell, finished in black hard-coat
plating - provides a strong industrial grade connector, engineered
for a long service life.

Amphe-Power® Composite Amphe®-GTR
Connectors
SPECIAL GT STYLE
Amphenol developed the Amphe-GTR with full worldwide approval from a major server manufacturer,
for use as the environmental power connector. Featuring high-performance composite plug and
receptacle shells, coupling nut, and hardware, this GT reverse bayonet connector meets all of the
specifications for high power process control and server applications.
AMPHE-GTR
• Utilizes RADSOK® high amperage socket contact technology, enabling
increased current ratings to 120A on individual contacts.
• Currently available in shell size 32 with 4 conductors or 5 conductors.
Current style is straight plug that houses the RADSOK® sockets and a
box mount receptacle with pin contacts.
• Compression (setscrew) wire termination to the 4/6AWG or 8/10AWG
conductors allows easy field replacement of pin or socket contacts, or
complete plug and receptacle assemblies, without requiring specialized
tooling.
• Meets same performance levels as GT Series.
• Listed to UL/CUL 1977/1682/817 Standard, control number 19VP.
• Utilizes a standard PG adapter watertight strain relief on the plug to
achieve IP67 seal rating.
• Flammability rated to UL94V-0.

Another GT series reverse bayonet connector modification is the Power GT, incorporat-
ing three 8.0mm RADSOK® contacts mounted in a common termination to busbar or
cable. This design created the first TUV “finger-proof” 500A connector in the market-
place, and provides an ultra-high current density in a compact connector layout.
POWER GT
• Currently available in shell size 28 with three 8.0mm
RADSOK® sockets on the receptacle side, in positive and
negative polarizations
• Pins on the plug side can be fitted with “dead-front” tips to
finger-proof the plug side as well.
• Characteristics common to the GT Standard Line, but
enhanced to an ultra-high current density in a compact shell
size 28 layout.
• 90° wire orientation on the plug provides low-profile mount-
ing for tight packaging requirements.
• Plug is designed to be overmolded in 2/0 or 4/0 size wires
or can be fitted with mechanical hardware.
• Plug and receptacle available in Positive (+) and
Negative (-) Polarization.
• Length of cable to be determined by customer or
application.

RADSOK® PowerBus
PowerBlokTM, RADSERTTM Connectors
Traditional methods of adding increased power to existing PCBs are often bulky and/or expensive:
• Add additional boards or increase the thickness of copper layers of the board which is expensive and
traps heat within the board.
• Bring the power with wires either screwed to the board or with pluggable connections. This method can
create a “rats nest” of wires and take an excessive amount of expensive board real estate.
AMPHENOL HAS BETTER SOLUTIONS -
Amphenol Industrial has three RADSOK® solutions to add power to PCBs and preserve valuable
board real estate in a system. Amphenol PowerBlokTM and RadsertTM interconnects are small and
with a low profile and mount into thru-holes in the board. The Amphenol PGYTM is an interconnect
that is a small stand-off component with a RADSOK® which is mounted through holes in the board.
RADSOK® POWERBLOKTM
The RADSOK® PowerBlokTM provides a high current single-point
connection to the PCB with the proven reliability of compliant pin
signals. The PowerBlokTM is designed to bring up to 70 Amperes to the
board, utilizing our custom 3.0mm RADSOK® design. The compliant
pins are press-fit into the board to secure a solid connection and even
flow.
• High power to the board in a small footprint. (1/2”x1/2”)
• 3.0mm RADSOK® carries up to 70AMPS.
• Backplane Power interface with compliant pins for
signals.

• Radial design ensures many points of contact.
• Reduces failure modes, eliminates burn outs.
• No threaded fasteners.
• No special crimp tools required.
• Eliminates possible stress fractures in board.
• Faster through-put
• RoHS compliant.
RADSOK® RADSERTTM The RADSERTTM design is the best option when you need the
most power in a single-point connection to the Printed Circuit
Board. RADSERTTM allows the designer to bring power to the
board from busbars suspended above the board and all of the
board components. Pins from the busbar plug into the
RADSOK®s which are installed by press fitting the RADSOK® into
the RadsertsTM. The RADSERTsTM are press fit into plate-thru
holes in the PCB. The RadsertTM has the smallest footprint and is
available in 2.4mm and 3.6mm for board sizes of .250” +/- .25”.
• High Power to the board in a small package.
• Hyperbolic socket design ensures many points
of contact.
• Solder version or pre-loaded RADSERTsTM are
installed during board fabrication.
