Extended lead times for delivery of essential test equipment are now one of the biggest challenges for organisations, their engineering teams and project leads. With global chip shortages causing significant and ever- growing delays and no sign of this shortage resolving in the short-term to medium-term, alternative yet well-established procurement options are becoming increasingly popular. Rental not only addresses this immediate need, but when introduced as part of a broader move to souring models based on operational budgets, can significantly reduce risk, speed up time to market, and remove embedded

FT connector, is the latest addition to Cliff’s market leading FeedThrough connector range and allows fast and reliable through-panel connection of standard 12-72 multimode optical fibre cables. To ensure reliable connectivity the connector body is made from black nickel-plated die-cast metal and the insert made from ABS/PC rated toUL94-VO and features a restraining clamp for secure cable connection. For system security a dust cover is available for when the connector is not in use. Cliff’s wide range of FeedThrough connectors may be used in audio/broadcast and industrial applications and are mounted in standard XLR cut-outs. Pre-assembled 19" patch panels with up to 16 connectors mounted are available to order.

Besides the introduction of enhanced Control Command and Signaling (CCS) approaches and novel technologies, it is necessary to design the appropriate IT platforms for future rail operation. The railway initiatives Reference CCS Architecture (RCA) and Open CCS Onboard Reference Architecture (OCORA) started working on a Safe Computing Platform concept in 2020. The railways and industry players DB Netz AG, duagon AG, Nederlandse Spoorwegen, Real-Time Innovations (RTI), SBB, Siemens Mobility GmbH, SNCF Voyageurs, SNCF Reseau, SYSGO GmbH, Thales and Wind River have now teamed up to jointly develop a first version of the possible API between railway applications and the Safe Computing Platform.

Innovative no compromise basic DIN-Rail power supplies offer cost advantages
The new PULS PIANO-PIM series ultra-compact, cost effective, high efficiency and reliability DIN-Rail power supplies from PULS Power offer 36W, 60W and 90W output power. They have been designed for use in the many industrial applications which only require a basic power supply so that customers do not have to pay for unnecessary control and communication facilities. The already very successful PIANO power supply range PULS now provides users with a complete, cost-oriented, product family with output power from 30-480W. At ambient temperatures between -10°C and +55°C, the devices work at full power without derating.

FeedThrough Fibre-Optic Connector
New, Intercompact PCB Connector Series from Smiths Interconnect – now available from Aerco Ltd
Optimized and qualified for the next generation of Electronic Control Units
The new Intercompact PCB connector series from Smiths Interconnect is optimised to meet the growing demand for compact, high-speed, and high reliability connectivity in the new generation of Electronic Control Unit (ECU) boxes operating in harsh environments, including Rail, Industrial, Aerospace and Defence target markets.
An innovative small form factor solution for PCB to PCB and floating mount rack and panel applications, it combines PCB signal and high speed quadrax contacts in the same light weight compact connector. Versions include up to 60 all signal contacts arranged over three rows, or 42 signal contacts with 1 or 2 quadrax contacts.
Signal contacts employ Smiths Hypertac® hyperboloid technology, which provides excellent reliability under high levels of shock and vibration in harsh environments. Contact features include a self-cleaning 360° wiping action, low insertion/extraction forces, minimal contact resistance, and immunity to fretting corrosion. Contacts are rated at 3A with endurance of over 500 cycles.
Quadrax contacts consists of two 100Ω controlled impedance differential pairs, supporting Ethernet 10-Base-T and 100-Base-Tx connectivity with bandwidths up to 100Mhz.
The insulator design uses an advanced liquid crystal polymer material which provides optimized insulation resistance in severe environmental conditions, while improved creepage and clearance distances allow an increased number of contacts to be accommodated in a smaller space. Floating mount receptacle options allow higher tolerance to misalignment and facilitate an easy blind mate.
The series is compliant with the main European railway standards, including EN45545- 2, NF-F61030, EN50155:2017, STM-S-001ind.D and more. It is also compliant with MIL-C-28748 and MIL-STD-202-301 standards and EIA and IEC standards for contact resistance and environmental testing. Vibration testing performs to EN61373. Connectors are RoHs compliant, with exemption 6c.
Standard operating temperature range is -55°C to +125°C with nominal voltage rating of 110V DC.
Target applications include ECUs, sensor/control networks, power electronics and rail traction converter systems.
