Aptiv's Winchester Interconnect launches VITA 67.2 RF Connector Product Line for high-density aerospace and defense systems. June 4, 2026 Aptiv PLC, a global industrial technology company, and Winchester Interconnect, an Aptiv company and leading supplier of high performance interconnect solutions for mission critical applications, launched a VITA 67.2 RF connector product line that places up to eight high frequency signal channels directly inside a standard Open VPX backplane slot. By eliminating most of the external coaxial cabling traditionally required in aerospace and defense systems, the connectors make room for more compute, more sensors and faster signals inside the same enclosure. The tradeoff between bandwidth and space has become a central design challenge for modern defense electronics. Radar arrays, signals intelligence receivers and electronic warfare payloads must handle more frequencies and channels at once, while platform integrators face tighter size, weight and power budgets than the previous generation. Routing RF cabling on the outside of the chassis adds mass, slows field repair and introduces points of failure during shock and vibration. Moving those signal paths inside the connector solves all three at once, which is one reason VITA 67.2 has become a standard reference for designs aligned with the Sensor Open Systems Architecture (SOSA), the...
