TECHNOLOGY IN ACTION ADVERTORIAL
M12 Connectors for BUS Systems
Queen Commissions HMS Queen Elizabeth, Fitted With Oxley Lights
T
he Queen will be guest of honour at the commissioning of the UK's new aircraft carrier - HMS Queen Elizabeth
today in Portsmouth. The HMS Queen Elizabeth is the biggest engineering
project ever undertaken by the UK military and Oxley is very proud to have supplied a full suite of LED navigation and signal lights for both this carrier and the second planned vessel for the Royal Navy. The suite of lights was designed and manufactured at
the Oxley facility in Ulverston Cumbria. The LED lights utilise the latest technology; they are rugged and sealed to IP67, they incorporate a built in health check system to enable the bridge team on the vessel to identify if a light is non-operational. The suite is composed of a full set of wheel marked
navigation lights, meeting COLREGs and suitable for any vessels over 50 metres in length. All variants are NVG friendly and therefore suitable for use with aircraft flying on night vision goggles.

M
-style connectors are categorised by the size of the threaded locking nut; these include M8, and M12 connectors. Tough and robust, these waterproof, circular screw connectors are the de-facto standard in the process industry
for reliable automated connections: protected to IP67. M8/M12 connectors provide a future-proof interface that supports higher-bandwidth needs, meeting the requirements of up to 10GB/s. All the leading BUS protocols are also available.
M12 connectors may also be coded. The common used keyed types are:
A-Coded; used in CAN-Bus, DeviceNet B-Coded; used to prevent mating with standard sensor A coding and in field buses like Profibus DP D-Coded; 4 pole used with Industrial Ethernet & Profinet. Ethernet M12 plugs and jacks with 100 MHz
X-Coded; 8 pole used in 10 Gbps Ethernet acc. to IEEE 802.3 CAT 6A – X-Coded connectors are ideal for industrial network applications in harsh environments. It is possible to transmit up to 10 Gbp/s and the X-coding design conforms to IEC 61076-2-109. Overmoulded male M12 double-ended cordsets and male M12 to male RJ45 CAT6A cordsets are currently available. All cordsets are available in standard 2, 3, 5 and 10 meter lengths. Suitable for Power over Ethernet (PoE, PoE plus, and UPoE)
Bus Systems
Bus technology has advanced in industrial automation. The connectors required for data transmission are very BUS- specific. To access the complex world of Bus technology, Conec offers connectors for Profibus DP and Industrial Ethernet.
Profibus is a manufacturer-dependent, open fieldbus system for a variety of applications in manufacturing, processing and building automation.
Industrial Ethernet is the general term for all applications that use the Ethernet standard to network devices used in industrial automation.
In2Connect UK Ltd SMARC Computer on Modules
The new standard for ultra low-power COMs was developed specifically for new modules with ARM and SoC processors and is characterized by the extremely flat build of its form factor. It uses a 314-pin connector that has a construction height of just 4.3 millimeters (the MXM 3.0) with an optimized ARM/SoC pin-out definition. This connection method allows robust and cost-effective designs that have an extremely thin construction height
S There are 4 modules available:
SMARC-FiMX7 NXP
i.MX7 Cortex-A7 Solo 800Mhz and Dual Core 1GHz 1GB (Dual) or 512MB (Solo)
SMARC-FiMX6 Freescale
i.MX6 Cortex-A9 Solo, Dual-Lite, Dual and Quad
