The Glenair High Density (GHD) system is the choice for military and commercial air and space applications that demand outstanding optical and environmental performance, but require reduced size and weight compared to standard MIL-DTL-38999 and other mil-spec designs.

Glenair has achieved nearly double the density of M28876 and D38999 with an innovative front-release terminus design and M85045/16 cable accommodation.

The System offers insertion loss values less than .5dB (typical loss for Glenair termini is .3 dB)

The GHD system offers many other advantages including keying for APC and far easier termination and maintenance.

MIL-DTL-38999 type fiber optic interconnection systems are the recognized standard for all military and commercial aerospace applications that depend on high levels of connector reliability, environmental and mechanical performance and low dB insertion loss.

Designed specifically for air and space, the Glenair MIL-DTL-38999 type fiber optic connection system has been successfully deployed in applications ranging from the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter and the venerable F-22 to dozens of other fixed wing and rotary aircraft applications.

The use of fiber optics in shipboard and ship-to-shore data transmissions is growing rapidly, and the tight-tolerance MIL-PRF-28876 interconnect has become the universal standard for Navy shipboard applications.

This connector series delivers all the necessary performance from precise optical alignment to environmental protection and corrosion resistance. These connectors and termini are ready for deployment in shipboard, surface and submarine applications, as well as mission-critical combat communication systems such as mobile tactical shelters.  They are specifically geared for upgrade and retrofit applications where extending system life-cycles and reducing cost of ownership are principal requirements.
