Robust locking PoweR connectoRs PRoDucts cables & connectoRs
Lane Electronics is now supplying the latest powerCON connectors from Neutrik. Extending the powerCON connector blue and grey portfolio, the two new NAC3FXXA and NAC3FXXB cable connectors meet relevant device standards, such as IEC62368-1, IEC60799 or UL817, and safety regulations which demand power (mains supply) connectors in accordance with IEC/EN/UL/CSA 60320-1. These robust and reliable connectors
sit alongside the established 16A powerCON blue (power in) and grey (power out) connectors and the larger 32A locking power connectors. These have different keying to avoid mis-mating between power-in and power-out and are available in TOP (Total Outdoor Protection) IP65 waterproof variants, making them suitable for applications including power connection, power distribution, hybrid power
usb-c male to usb-c female extension cables now available in white
A white version of Cliff Electronics’ popular USB-C Male to USB-C Female Extension cables is now available. The white version has been developed for applications such as clinical and home use
medical equipment, office, general IT connectivity, and for use with Cliff’s range of USB FeedThrough connectors. The existing black version is widely used as a general purpose data cable. This offers a range of features
including: 5Gb/s data transfer speeds; it can be used as a video cable 5k@60Hz video output (Thunderbolt 3) and audio transmission; Power Delivery (PD) charging at 60 watts (20v/@3A), USB 3.1 (Gen 1); -55˚C to +85˚C temperature range; 4.5mm outside cable diameter; and six lengths from 0.3 to 2m.

connector system offers a range of features
Available from Rutronik is Molex’s Micro-Fit 3.0 connector system, which features a wide range of pole numbers and cable lengths for power and signal transmission. With a pitch of 3.0mm and a maximum current carrying
capacity of 8.5A, this is designed to ensure a reliable power supply in a compact design. Optional features including contact position assurance (TPA), blind mating capability, and press-fit technology, provide OEMs with the flexibility they desire for space-constrained applications. These include automotive, consumer, medical, and telecommunications/networking. Additional benefits include fully insulated terminals
which protect against possible damage to the terminals during handling as well as mating, and minimise the risk of short circuits due to debris. The Micro-Fit family meets a range of requirements: • In hard-to-reach applications, such as slide-in units or
fan trays, connections must be able to be closed and opened without or with limited visual contact. With Micro-Fit BMI (Blind Mate Interface), Molex provides blind-mateable cable-to-cable and cable-to-board connectors, with up to 2.54 mm tolerance to misalignment and self-alignment capability. • A contact position assurance (TPA) feature reduces
contact slippage by providing redundant locking. It can only be closed when the contact is correctly positioned. Molex Micro-Fit TPA connectors prevent interference with end products. They are available in single-row with integrated secondary locking and double-row. • The CPI specification of the Micro-Fit 3.0 connectors
includes a spring-loaded press-fit pin interface while retaining all the features of the standard Micro-Fit 3.0 connector. In conjunction with the Micro-Fit 3.0 receptacle, it is possible to convert printed circuit boards easily from solder to press- fit applications. That allows design costs to be reduced. The pinhole-like shape ensures a reliable connection. • If applications are to be equipped with connectors that
require lower insertion and withdrawal forces or tolerate frequent mating cycles for longer, the Micro-Fit 3.0 RMF contacts come into focus. The pre-lubricated version can be mated up to 250 times and fits into Micro-Fit 3.0 standard housings. The RMF contacts are available in 20 to 30 AWG.

miniature pushpull connectors
New to HARTING’s PushPull connector series is the Mini PushPull, a waterproof and dustproof version of the ix Industrial Ethernet interface. This is suitable for fast and reliable data connectivity in demanding industrial environments and applications. Standardised according to IEC/PAS 61076-3-124,
the ix Industrial mating face in the Mini PushPull stands for reliable transmission performance and optional power supply via PoE/PoE+. This also features a 30% shorter housing compared to the HARTING PushPull RJ45. According to the company, PushPull offers outstanding robustness in combination with simple and process-safe operation in a waterproof and

dustproof design to IP65 / IP67. Compact, robust jacks are available for
device integration on the PCB, providing maximum stability with five THR shield contacts. The jacks are available in three different versions: horizontal, angled vertical, and vertical jack. All jacks are optionally available in the A
and B codings for Ethernet and signals. The data contacts are designed as SMD contacts, allowing manufacturers to process the PCB jacks according to the normal reflow soldering process. The Mini PushPull add-on housing is mounted in front of a rectangular mounting
cut-out during device integration and connects the PCB jacks, providing IP65 / IP67 protection.
