Harwin has introduced horizontal backshells for its Gecko-Screw-Lok (Gecko-SL) series of lightweight, high-reliability (Hi-Rel) connectors. These backshells ensure a fully EMI/RFI shielded connection for horizontal 1.25mm pitch board-to-cable connections. Previously, Gecko EMI/RFI shielding was only available on vertical board-to-cable orientations. This new development will be of real value to applications requiring EMI/RFI protection, but where there’s…
Harwin offers female contact for semi-rigid, coaxial cabling
Building on the program where the different elements of its 4mm-pitch Datamate Mix-Tek connectors (which can be sourced separately), Harwin now offers a new female contact option to its customer base. Like all Mix-Tek coax contacts, the M80-310 is designed for data carrying, with support for frequencies reaching up to 6GHz. This latest contact can be…
Rosenberger and STMicroelectronics develop high-speed contactless connector
STMicroelectronics, a global semiconductor provider, and Rosenberger, a manufacturer of impedance-controlled and optical connectivity solutions, announced their collaboration on a contactless connector for ultra-reliable, short-range, point-to-point full-duplex data exchanges in industrial and medical applications . Rosenberger’s innovative contactless connector, the RoProxCon, leverages ST’s 60GHz RF transceiver, the ST60A2, to deliver high-speed data transmission while providing immunity…
Harwin offers rear panel-mount cable connectors for its Hi-Rel series
To provide customers with greater choice and increase design flexibility, Harwin now offers rear panel-mount cable connectors for both of its 2mm-pitch Datamate and 1.25mm-pitch Gecko high-reliability (Hi-Rel) series. The new series will complement the company’s existing front panel-mount solutions, broadening the scope of how connector housings are attached to an enclosure or panel. The…
Harwin offers flexible, multi-directional spring contacts
Harwin has now expanded its range of spring contacts with the addition of two new versions. These surface-mount components are capable of supporting horizontal and vertical connection orientations, but come in smaller size formats than were previously available. The S1961-46R has a 3.55mm height, while the S1971-46R has a height of 4.55mm. The S1961-46R and S1971-46R offer current…
