A connector block comprised of a plurality of spring-embedded blind mate connector assemblies. Each of the spring-embedded blind mate connector assemblies can be comprised of a first connector extending in a first direction and a second connector extending in a second direction opposite the first direction, where the first connector and the second connector can have a common axis and can be operatively coupled to pass a signal between opposite ends of the spring-embedded blind mate connector assembly. The first connector can include a captivator, a connection extension, and a spring between the captivator and the second connector, where the spring can abut the captivator and have an outer diameter no greater than an outer diameter of the captivator.

Blind mate connector block and systems and methods thereof

Systems, apparatus, and related methods for distributing power associated with radars are disclosed. A disclosed bus bar assembly for a radar power distribution system includes a first vertical bus and first horizontal buses electrically coupled to the first vertical bus. The bus bar assembly also includes a second vertical bus and second horizontal buses electrically coupled to the second vertical bus. The bus bar assembly also includes first blind mate connectors coupled to the first horizontal buses whereby each of the first horizontal buses includes a pair of the first blind mate connectors configured to removably connect to an LRU. The bus bar assembly also includes second blind mate connectors coupled to the second horizontal busses whereby each of the second horizontal buses includes a pair of the second blind mate connectors configured to removably connect to an LRU.

System, apparatus, and method for distributing power for radar system

A mounting system for functionally-coupling a line-replaceable unit with a structural manifold for supplying fluid coolant can comprise a fastener for the line-replaceable unit having a base and a projection. The projection can have a proximal portion and a distal portion, where the fastener is at least partially-threaded along the projection, and a plurality of seals are disposed radially along the projection. A channel can extend along a longitudinal axis of the fastener from the distal portion of the projection toward the proximal portion of the projection. One or more outlets can be disposed along the projection, the one or more outlets providing fluid communication between the channel and an external environment of the fastener. The fastener can be reversibly-coupled to a mating fastener of the structural manifold such that, when coupled, the line-replaceable unit is rigidly coupled to the structural manifold and fluid is able to flow therebetween.
