application needed for the mission. Often the system designers consider the ruggedised connectors currently available, and when existing products don’t meet their application requirements, they must consider modified connector designs. They may need to meet the challenge of their new products and how they are used. Omnetics assists by not only offering samples of the standard connectors for evaluation, but it will have a “solid model” design leader work directly with clients to modify the interconnect design and meet all of their specific requirements. New connector formats evolve and the changes can be reviewed with those involved directly in the electronics they will be used with. Omnetics begins by using proven connector components from existing QPL certified and military tested connectors. The connectors employ a BeCu (beryllium copper) spring pin to socket system in their rugged interconnects proven to exceed the shock and vibration testing in Mil. Spec 83513 and 32139.
A new connector can be formatted quickly for early field testing with assurance it will perform well in the battlefield arena.
Omnetics connectors employ a spring pin socket system, which means a new connector can be formatted quickly for early field testing.
will often solve new instrument needs and secure high-reliability performance, based on proven materials and processes from the company’s established standards. Omnetics is a world leader in miniature connector solid-model design partnering, with customers to provide perfect-fit cable and connectors for advanced applications. Using 24-hour 3D material, added processes designers can conceive,
“Omnetics assists by not only offering samples of the standard connectors for evaluation, but it will have a “solid model” design leader work directly with clients to modify the interconnect design and meet their specific requirements.”
When designing micro and nano-sized cable and connector systems used in advanced systems, consider Omnetics. The company’s advanced design group works directly with its clients’ engineers and forwards early designs to its fast- turn product development group. Early samples give the system designer a significant advantage in formatting and modelling a next generation soldier electronics package.
The three-step-process New connector forms are rapidly designed using proven connector and materials as a reference to modify shape, size and function. Tailored connectors
model and build test devices quickly to meet their needs.
Omnetics has a direct three-step- process. Its application-specific connectors will meet customers’ needs and be available on-time. 1. Designers can view miniature connectors with proven performance on the website, or they can discuss them with the sales team.
2. Partner with an Omnetics connector designer for online collaboration, making a new solid model of exactly what is needed. This should take less little as two days.
3. When you like the solid models, ask for a 3D sample made using automated

material added process. This should take less than 24 hours.
The new 3D model is shipped to the customer to fit it into the new application for final approval, or/and redefine any specific changes. Modified connectors are used to combine signals in what are called mixed-signal or hybrid connectors. Coax and power signal are routed through the same connector and cable as multiple digital signals. This significantly reduces the size, weight and routing complexity for the system designer. Specific applications using Omnetics connectors include high-speed soldier borne and helmet communication cables, connectors for cube satellites, orbital radio circuitry on satellites, UAV controls, surveillance system digital data connectors, missile control electronics, robotic interconnections, spinal modulation, prosthetics, catheter cable to monitors and more.
Omenetics takes great pride in the products it builds. The design team works closely with customers to create new and custom interconnect solutions for tomorrow’s innovative products. The connectors are designed, produced, and tested by hand at our plant in the US, which features in-house automatic machining and over-moulding equipment. Omnetics is a privately held company and exists to advance innovation wherever it is needed next. ●
