technologies. CASS Interface System As a CASS Approved Supplier, Virginia Panel Corporation provides all of the Interface Connector Assemblies and connector components for the CASS program.

2 Consolidated Automated Support System CASS The Consolidated Automated Support System (CASS) is the Navy s Automated Test Equipment (ATE) standard. Designed to solve problems of unreliability, rapid obsolescence and difficult logistic support, CASS incorporates modularity and flexibility to allow expansion for testing both current and future technologies. CASS Interface System As a CASS Approved Supplier, Virginia Panel Corporation provides all of the Interface Connector Assemblies and connector components for the CASS program. Our proven design for the CASS Receiver features a single tier engaging mechanism with 19 modular positions, and accepts a single tier Interface Device (ID) Frame. Hangers on the Receiver allow the ID to be placed on the ATE while the engaging handle is in the closed position. After the handle is lowered 90 degrees to the open position, the ID moves slightly forward, positioning it for connector engagement. The Receiver and ID Frame are designed to accept four types of connector modules: Signal, Power, Coaxial, and Blank. Blank Modules contain no electrical connectors and are for unused areas or areas designated for future expansion. For ease of wiring, VPC offers a variety of Patchcords and Contacts. ID Housings are also available with removable cover assemblies which may be customized to your specific needs. All CASS approved parts are denoted by a Navy part number, as well as a VPC part number. CASS TPS Support In support of CASS TPS Development, VPC has developed a variety of Patchcords to simplify wiring, a selection of enclosures to protect wiring, and starter ID and Tool Kits which are described on page 13 of this catalog. VPC is also listed as an approved vendor per the CASS TPS Program Parts Selection List under cage code Series Interface System For commercial users not requiring the CASS military standard, VPC manufactures the 80 Series Interface System. Using the same proven design as in the CASS Interface System, the 80 Series Receiver also features a single tier engaging mechanism with 19 modular positions. The 80 Series Receiver accepts a single tier ID, but does not include the telescoping handle or RFI Gasketing specified by the Navy s CASS guidelines. Signal, Power, Coaxial and Blank Modules are accommodated in the 80 Series Receiver and ID. 80 Series Interface System parts do not have Navy part numbers associated with them.

28 CONTACTS AND PATCHCORDS SOLDER SLEEVE FOR COAXIAL TERMINATION Solder Sleeve TM termination is available for Coaxial Contacts. A durable, reliable and economical alternative to traditional crimping methods, Solder Sleeve is constructed of heat-shrinkable thermoplastic. The sleeve contains a fluxed solder pre-form, which provides the exact amount of solder and flux required to connect coaxial wire to the contact. The solder sleeve s one-piece, pre-assembled design makes application as easy as stripping the wire, inserting it and heating the contact. After shrinking, the sleeve acts as an insulator and provides strain relief for the solder joint. If contact replacement is needed, simply heat, pull the contact off the cable, clean the cable, insert a new contact, heat and plug contact back into module. To ensure proper connection, VPC offers a tool kit containing the holding fixture with the appropriate adapter and a separate heating gun (see page 27 for complete listing of tools).
