What’s New Easy installation for high density fibre optics
Fibre optic connectivity specialist, Huber and Suhner, has introduced a new connector designed to offer easy installation while increasing the packing density of fibre optic systems.
The LC-HQ connector has all the qualities
of the LC connector but incorporates the push-pull technology of traditional SC fibre optic connectors. This achieves the high
performance required by datacomms and telecoms industries while alsomaking it possible to stack the connectors side by side formaximumpacking density.
The LC-HQ push pull fibre optic connector
range is fully compliant with IEC 61754-20 and TIA 604-10-A. Colour coded singlemode PC, singlemode APC andmultimode/OM3 connector types are all available.

that electronics buyers can follow to ensure cable systems provide reliable performance in demanding environments andmission- critical applications.
According to author PaulWarren, cable
A new white paper fromWL Gore & Associates presents a systematic approach
reliability is based on durability and signal integrity. Some industries have defined safety, environmental and performance-related standards, butmany applications in harsh environments require cable systems that go beyond those standards, such as aerospace, cleanroomand geophysical environments.

Servingmemory buyers
Apacer has introduced a high-capacity, lowpower DDR3memory module dedicated to servers. This high-speed processing 8GB DDR3 ECC registered DIMMallowsmemory systems to run at 1,333MHz speeds, helping servers accelerate data processing.
Themodule boasts an advanced processormemory chip designed
to aid server stability during high-speed computing,while the power efficient design can reduce power consumption by 20 per cent. This DDR3memorymodule is compatiblewith Intel’s and AMD’s latest two-way server platform, including Intel’s three-channel Xeon 5600 series and AMD’s four-channelOpteron 6000 series.
Modules undergo rigorous testing for reliability, tailored to
operation in a harsh environment. Tests include an hour-longwide temperature test and high and low-stress tests, aswell as actual motherboard testing. Apacer products also pass platformtesting by majormanufacturers and have acquired Intel’s third party laboratory accreditation CMTL certificate.

Think pink
Marl has added a pink version to its 676 series of indicator LEDs. These IP67 sealed LEDs are ideal for panels and status indication applications due to their wide viewing angle. The pink LED offers further potential to customise a systemby assigning different colours to different types of status and warning indication. Other colours in the series include: red, yellow, green, blue and cool white.
The pink LED is identical to the standard 676 series, except that it is
fitted with a clear rather than a smoked lens to allow the colour to be seen clearly. Offered in both 12V and 24 to 28V versions, 676 series LEDs feature an internal reverse protection diode to reduce the risk of damage in the event of incorrect connection. Specifically designed for demanding environments, the LEDs are internally potted to withstand high vibration and sealed to IP67 to protect against dust and liquid.

Systemfor Your Environment,Warren discusses the electrical,mechanical, environmental and application-specific constraints that affect cable performance. He describes the advantages and disadvantages of typicalmaterials used in cable construction, including an explanation of the testing and data analysis a manufacturer should performto verify its cable will performin a specific application. He also discusses cost considerations and the ramifications of cable failure.
