20 August 2008
Interconnection
Samtec has added new rugged interface products, including PowerStrip/55 high power interconnects, AccliMate and LifeJack I/O interfaces and Tiger Eye micro rugged discrete wire system, to its standard product offering.
PowerStrip/35 high power connector strips (PES/PET Series) can handle up to 35 Amps and are available as an all power interface, or as a combination signal/power system (PESC/PETC Series) with up to eight power pins and 40 signal pins.
AccliMate IP68 sealed circular (SCRX/SCPX Series) panel and I/O interfaces are now available for use in power, micro pin-and-socket, USB and Ethernet applications, and can be terminated to the board with a variety of standard rugged interfaces, including Power Mate and Mini Mate connectors. Samtec's LifeJack (MDOS-LJ Series) can provide nearly unlimited RJ45 modular jack cycles with a field replaceable contact system.
The Tiger Eye discrete wire system (SFSD/TFSD Series) is a rugged micro board-to-board interconnect system. This discrete wire system mates with the popular SFM/TFM Tiger Eye connectors for high cycle applications.
