How to Order
To order connectors in constructions for potting, use the standard
MS nomenclature (MS3100A, MS3101A, and MS3106A construc-
tions are available), but substitute “97” for “MS”, drop the “A” suffix
for type of back shell, and add the application deviation (XXX) as
shown on the chart. Example: 97-3106-28-16S (438).

MS/Standard MIL-C-5015 Type Connectors
Amphenol has long been the accepted leader in providing MS/Standard MIL-
C-5015 type connectors. When a Mil-Spec 5015 connector is required, these
connectors provide well-proven electrical capability. They are tested to strict
adherence to military specifications, and they are offered in a very broad
range of product styles and options. Features include:
• medium to heavy weight cylindrical with resilient inserts
• environmental resistant
• threaded couplings, single key/keyway shell polarization
• operating voltage to 3000 VAC (RMS) at sea level
• 5 shell styles, 19 shell sizes, 280 contact arrangements
• solder or crimp contacts (non-rear-release type),
sizes 16–0 accepting 22–0 AWG
• coaxial or thermocouple contact options
• alternate insert positioning
• hermetic configurations available
• zinc alloy plating (cadmium-free) available
Within the MS/Standard family there are five mil-spec classes to meet differ-
ent requirements:
A – Solid Shell – for general, non-environmental applications. Amphenol® MS/Standard MIL-C-5015 Connectors
C – Pressurized – for use on pressurized bulkheads or pressure barriers;
limits air leakage regardless of type and class of plug mated with them.
E/F – Environmental Resisting with Strain Relief – designed for applications where the connector will be exposed to
moisture, vibration, and rapid changes in pressure and temperature.
R – Lightweight Environmental Resisting – shorter in length, lighter in weight than the E & F classes, the MS-R offers
a high degree of reliability under adverse conditions: recommended for new design applications.

Amphenol® Swiftmate® Connectors
Swiftmate is a series of general duty connector plugs that mate
and lock to MIL-C-5015 style threaded receptacles in the most
popular sizes and configurations with a simple push of the con-
nector plug.
Disengaging the connection is equally as simple, pull back on
the coupling ring and remove the plug from the receptacle. This
is accomplished with Amphenol’s new patented Swiftmate cou-
pling system. Swiftmate connectors meet the vibration require-
ments of MIL-STD-810, category 10 for general equipment.
This coupling system works without damaging the receptacles’
thread, allowing both Swiftmate connectors and the older
threaded style connectors to share the same receptacle. This
allows equipment manufacturers to offer the enhanced features
of rapid mating connectors while maintaining compatibility with
equipment currently in the field. Swiftmate connectors feature Amphenol® Swiftmate Connectors
solder style silver plated contacts and the same electrical char-
acteristics as MIL-C-5015 connectors.
Swiftmate connectors offer an economical solution to commercial and industrial connector applications.
Applications include material handling, conveyor systems, parts control, automated assembly lines, test
equipment, machine controls, robotics, as well as many more.
• Simple push to mate / pull to unmate locking coupling system
• Mates and locks to current ML-C-5015 style threaded receptacles
• Compatible with most popular Amphenol 97 series & MIL-C-5015 connectors
• Engineered to accommodate most Amphenol 97 series inserts and contacts
• For power and signal applications
• Electrical characteristics designed to MIL-C-5015 specifications
