Amphenol AHD Connectors

Amphenol Sine Systems AHD Series™ Connectors were developed in response to the overwhelming need for an economic alternative to today’s existing diagnostic product options. Designed specifically as a cost-conscious, reliable alternative, intermateable to industry standard 6 and 9 pin connectors (see Cross-Reference Guide), the AHD Series™ is ideal for any situation where either controlled and/or uncontrolled environmental conditions exist. Amphenol Sine Systems AHD Series™ Connectors offer a smooth, non-sealing option for controlled applications, an environmentally-sealed, threaded option for more demanding applications, as well as J1939 Type 1 (Black Body) and Type 2 (Green Body) options.

What is J1939? J1939 has become the accepted industry standard and the choice for vehicle diagnostic and data communication for commercial heavy-duty, off-highway, truck, bus, marine propulsion, power generation, industrial pumping, construction, and material handling machines. J1939 is a higher-layer protocol based on Controller Area Network (CAN). Adopted widely by the diesel engine industry, it provides diagnostic data such as vehicle engine speed, temperature, oil temperature, exhaust emissions, and other customizable options.
