Advanced Air Mobility (AAM) / eVTOL Interconnect Solutions

Signature Interconnect Technology for Advanced Air Mobility Aircraft Including Connectors for Distributed Power Propulsion Systems, Avionics, Actuators, and Sensors

Distributed Electric Propulsion (DEP) is a key element of all eVTOL aircraft. The native power sources in a DEP can be as simple as a single battery or as complex as a hybrid system made up of gas combustion engines, electric generators, fuel cells, and energy storage devices. Glenair manufactures a broad range of lightweight, rugged, aviation-grade power connectors and power feeder systems with proven commercial aerospace flight heritage. Our family of eVTOL air taxi interconnect solutions also includes high-density, small form-factor connectors for avionic systems, flight deck controls, actuators, and sensors. EWIS interconnect hardware for Urban Air Mobility includes lightweight composite thermoplastic backshells, EMC braided shielding, and lightning strike grounding systems.

MotorHead Advanced Air Mobility Connectors

MotorHead Advanced Air Mobility Connectors
Low-profile, Lightweight PEEK Construction for Electric Motor Power Applications

The Glenair MotorHead Advanced Air Mobility connector is a low-profile, economical high-voltage solution for eVTOL advanced air mobility electric motor, inverter, and production break applications. The MotorHead connector solution is built around individually-shielded TurboFlex cable, high-temperature Crown Ring contacts, and an easy-to-install Autoshrink insulator. Available packaging includes lightweight composite PEEK multi-pole design and "Better than QPL" SuperNine circulars for discrete power line interconnection. Termination and assembly process saves time and labor.

  • High ampacity multi-pole series with Autoshrink insulator for reduced assembly and labor
  • 2500 VAC working voltage
  • Crown Ring contacts: crimp-removable, low insertion force
  • High current, low resistance, superior vibration resistance
  • Safe-touch finger proofing
  • TurboFlex-compatible
  • Support for busbar and other wire terminations
  • Range of multi-pin insert arrangements for size 8, 4, 2, 1/0, 2/0, 4/0 contacts
