If a catalog is available, you will see a button titled 'View Catalog' on the right.
Requesting Pdf version of a Drawing:
We do not intentionally hold back PDF's - it is not in the best interest of our site visitor or us as a Company. Amphenol has literally millions of part numbers, countless are from pre CAD days consequently only hard copy drawings are available. In these cases we do our best to obtain some electronic format to send out when requested and for this we need to know some details. PDF's for new products are posted as soon as drawings are released.
The button titled 'Request pdf' appears if there is no drawing available for you to download. This may be due to several reasons:
1. We have the drawing and are still in the process of making it available for download.
2. No drawing actually exist and one will have to be requested from the factory for you.
3. We need to direct your request to the appropriate Amphenol divison.
Hint: If you know that you will be requesting several drawings, send only one email with a list of the items, rather than one email per drawing.

The page is not being refreshed:
Occasionally, your web browser may not be able to connect to a site due to a myriad of reasons, sometimes nothing to do with the site you are addressing. Over and above this, it is common for the browsers to "cache" the web page and store them in "Temporary Internet Files", and also to store "cookies". If a site is not found or unavailable etc. when you tried to access it, you may get the same "cached" page everytime you attempt to access that site. This depends on the settings of your browser options which can be set to refresh upon every visit. In these cases the easiest thing to try is to force a "refresh" by holding down the "ctrl" key and pressing the "F5" key. If the page appears unchanged then there is likely to be a "current" problem.
