Part number: Part number: D48E - ___ - S_ - 000 - ___ (No Slip Ring)

Part number: Part number: D48E - __ -C_ - 000 -___ (With Slip Ring)

Payload Wiring

PTU D48E units equipped with an internal slip ring are available with internal pass through wiring, which provides a 19 pin MIL C 26402 female receptacle at the top of the PTU near the payload location to connect video, power, and other signals. (The mating connector is provided to facilitate cable construction if needed.) These signals then pass through the PTU, into the connector at the base of the unit, and the cable harness (if purchased). This option allows you to reduce the amount of external cables and eliminate potential damage to external cables.

• The payload receptacle contains lines for Video 1, Video 2, payload power, and general pass through lines.
• The base receptacle contains lines for Video 1, Video 2, payload power, general pass through lines, PTU control (RS 232, RS 485), and PTU power.

No Pass Through

The PTU D48E comes standard with no payload pass through wiring.

The following accessories may be ordered for your E Series PTU. These accessories simplify system prototyping and fielding.

Breakout Cables

The breakout cable connects to the 32 pin base connector

(MIL C 26482) on the PTU and terminates to standard connectors for power, serial communication, Ethernet, and payload signals. The terminating connectors are:

• Power (DIN), 2x video (composite),
• RS 232 (DB 9, female),
• RS 485 (RJ11),
• Ethernet (RJ45),
• and payload pass through conductors. Available in 25’, 50’, and 100’ lengths.
