PushPull connector for reliable termination in industrial camera systems
Variant 4 of the HARTING PushPull industrial connector family has been designed to provide a reliable termination for camera systems in applications such as industrial quality control or security surveillance.
The new connector is suited to industrial
environments involving dirt and dust or outdoor applications subjected to heat and cold. Based on an intelligent building-block construction, the PushPull family offers a multitude of bulkhead- mounted housings, wall bushings, and connectors for a range of system configurations. An important element of this system is the RJ45 connector for 1 Gbit/s and 10 Gbit/s Ethernet transmission in Cat 6 Class EA systems. This is available as an overmoulded system cable or as a field-installable connector with insulation displacement technology. Options for USB 2.0 (types A and B) and USB 3.0 (type A) are also available, as are optical solutions based on an LC duplex configuration.
Contactum unveils galvanised steel wall mount enclosures
In addition to the compact design, high data rates and rugged IP 65/67 construction, an essential characteristic of the PushPull series is its suitability for simple and swift commissioning in the field, thereby guaranteeing short setup and installation times

AVX releases new low-profile 0603 MLO diplexer for multiband applications
AVX Corporation has launched a new low-profile 0603 diplexer. Based on the company’s patented multilayer organic high density interconnect technology, the new 0603 MLO diplexer employs high dielectric constant and low loss materials to realise high Q passive printed elements, such as inductors and capacitors in a multilayer stack up. Capable of supporting multiple wireless standards, including: WCDMA, CDMA, WLAN, GSM, and BT, the 0603 diplexers are suited for band switching in dual- and multiband applications, such as WiFi, WiMax, GPS, and cellular bands.
Using land grid array packaging technology, the 0603 diplexers have an inherently low profile (<0.5mm) and exhibit excellent solderability, low parasitics, and high heat dissipation. Expansion matched to PCBs, the diplexers also provide improved reliability with regards to comparable ceramic or silicon components. The 0603 MLO diplexer features a maximum power capacity of 4.5W, measures 1.65mm x 0.88mm x 0.42mm (0.065” x 0.035” x 0.017”), is rated for use in temperatures ranging from - 40°C to +85°C, and is available in Ni Au, Ni Sn,
Contactum, a manufacturer of wiring accessories and circuit protection, has launched a brand new range of Wall Mount Enclosures that are engineered from galvanised steel to protect electronic equipment from water, dust, damage or theft. These enclosures are finished with an additional hard-wearing powdered top coat, offering a highly reliable, non-corrosive solution for a wide range of industrial and commercial applications. Available in a comprehensive range of sizes, the range has a high IP rating of 65 and has been designed specifically for applications that require a more robust solution than mild steel, but without the premium cost of stainless steel solutions. Another feature of the range is the earth strap that, unlike alternative products on the market, is pre-fitted to dedicated anti- vibration studs within each cabinet, reducing installation time by approximately 20 minutes as well as the cost of purchasing additional parts. A sturdy gland plate situated at the bottom
affords protection to all cables entering the Enclosure and a galvanised steel back plate is also included as a standard.
Suitable for indoor and outdoor installation, the cabinet can be made secure against
unauthorised access with the integration of a key lock. Contactum can also provide Transparent Door Enclosures on request, which feature a strong polycarbonate window that is both flame retardant and UV resistant. The new Wall Mount Enclosure range is suitable for use in a wide variety of industries, including power generation, energy, automation, process, highways, security, airports and railways.

Lane Electronics unveils miniature 8STA high density circular connector series
Lane Electronics has unveiled the Souriau 8STA High Density (HD) Series of circular connectors designed for specific applications where high performance, small size and lightweight are key factors. Motorsport is a particular target market sector.
Lane Electronics is an assembling distributor for Souriau products including the 8STA range and is preparing to add 8STA High Density connectors to its stock profile in the near future, enabling the supply of finished products on short lead times. According to Lane, this is the smallest and lightest circular connector of its type currently available and its high density capability provides up to 68 size 26 contacts using 24 to 30 AWG wire. This allows a smaller shell size to be used for the same application. The connectors are derived from established military specifications MIL-DTL-38999 and JN1003 and feature a rugged aluminium body plated with conductive black zinc as standard. Seven shell sizes in seven layouts are available from size 02 to 14. Contacts are gold plated copper alloy with liquid silicone rubber insulator and seal. The size 26 contacts are rated at 3A. Importantly, the new connector is 100%
scoop proof and incorporates a positive locking mechanism with locked colour indicators. They

Samtec has expanded its Razor Beam LP product line to include a new ultra fine pitch, low profile system for applications where space is limited and high speed performance is required. The ultra-fine pitch 0,50 mm socket and terminal connector strips (SS5/ST5 Series) are available in 4 mm, 4,5 mm and 5 mm stack heights. The 4,00 mm stack height system is rated at 13 GHz (26 Gbps) based on a -3dB insertion loss point of the system. This new Razor Beam LP double row system is intended to increase design flexibility with a choice of 20, 30 or 40 positions. The narrow 5 mm body width of this two-piece system optimizes PCB board space, gold plated contacts provide high reliability for increased mating cycles, and surface mount tails ensure board level stability.
Razor Beam LP products include an ultra fine 0,40 mm pitch system (SS4/ST4 Series) with stack heights from 4 mm to 6 mm and up to 100 total positions. Also available is a low profile, 0,50 mm pitch, terminal and socket system (SSH/STH
Series) with stack heights from 2 mm to 3 mm. The Razor Beam family of interconnects includes micro rugged hermaphroditic interfaces for high speed/high density applications. These self-mating systems reduce inventory costs and are available in a variety of pitches and lead styles for increased flexibility.

TE Connectivity (TE) has announced the new DEUTSCH 369 Series of connectors. The 369 series provides a range of high-reliability, lightweight, compact and cost-efficient connectors suited to harsh aerospace environments. This series is particularly suited to civil aerospace cabin systems applications. The connectors have been designed to meet today's tightening industry regulations and Electrical Wiring Interconnect Systems (EWIS) best practices.
The 369 series is designed for applications
where fewer contacts are needed in each connector and shielding is unnecessary. The extremely lightweight and compact connectors come in three standard contact layouts: 3-, 6- and 9-way configurations.
Installation and maintenance of cabling is simple, quick and reliable with a range of individually colour-coded keying options. Each mated half of the connector can be configured with either male or female contacts, doubling the keying configurations available and electrically protecting contacts on the powered-side of a system. Aerospace standard AS39029 crimp contacts can be easily extracted and inserted from the rear
of the connector with standard tooling. The 369 series is particularly suitable for blind-mating or low visibility conditions, with the scoop-proof interface to help prevent damage to contacts. The connectors are fully sealed for use in areas with high levels of moisture and are manufactured from high-performance composite materials which are designed to help meet the low smoke, toxicity and flammability requirements of the aerospace industry. The 369 series connectors are suitable for various aerospace applications within the cabin such as cabin lighting, oxygen mask systems, galley systems and seat actuation systems. The connectors also provide a solution for UAV lighting systems and helicopter control panels.
