and a variety of special application connectors. Manufacturing
connectors since 1932, we take pride that Amphenol Industrial
Operations is the undisputed leader in interconnect systems for
harsh environment applications. Innovations like our RADSOK contact
technology can provide roughly 50% more current through the same
size pin. Connectors utilizing the RADSOK technology will
outperform similar products in the market hands down. The Sidney,
NY facility, nestled at the foothills of the Catskill Mountains, is
over 307,000 square feet. This complex houses over 10000+ employees
incorporating state-of-the- art manufacturing technologies. The
facility is bot ISO9001 certified and qualified to MIL-STD-790
requirements.
Amphenol is one of the largest manufacturers of interconnect
products in the world. The company designs, manufactures and
markets electrical, electronic and fiber optic connectors, coaxial
and flat-ribbon cable, and interconnect systems. Amphenol has long
been the accepted leader in providing quality connectors and
interconnect systems to the Industrial, Military and
Telecommunication markets.

Product Overview
UPC (Ultimate Power Connector) is a plastic power connector series
designed to be used in the hybrid electric vehicle and heavy
equipment markets. The 2-pole and 3-pole connectors incorporate
patented RADSOK technology which provides higher amperage, lower
T-rise and voltage drop, and less resistance. RADSOKs twisted grid
configuration allows for up to 50% more current to pass through the
same size pin, while providing increased reliability and cycle
durability, as well as lower mating forces. The compact plastic
shell structure is light weight with a small footprint. There is a
9.1mm and 14.0mm version which can carry currents up to 200A to
450A, field installable and repairable. These attributes make the
UPC robust and the interconnect of choice for the EV and Hybrid
markets.
