UNRIVALLED PERFORMANCE IN CRITICAL ENVIRONMENTS SOLVES INTERCONNECT CHALLENGES CHIARA PIERI MARCOM MANAGER SMITHS INTERCONNECT
2. Proven technical characteristics of the product technology 3. Product compliance with the main international standards for the relevant market Choosing the right product materials is an important step toward ensuring that the connector will provide a stable connection despite being subjected to a variety of harsh conditions. Connectors that are lightweight and compact have the added benefits of cost- and space-savings. A connector with very low contact resistance ensures the minimum temperature rise at high currents. The peak temperature of the insulator material is
From satellites and next generation aircrafts to life- saving defibrillators and railway systems, connectivity requires superior quality products that offer great performance and optimal reliability under extreme temperature, mechanical shock and vibration, difficult access, water or dirt ingress, and fretting corrosion. To ensure reliable signal integrity by keeping the product undamaged through a long-life cycle, the manufacturer itself needs to guarantee three key aspects:
1. Selection of rugged and appropriate product materials
