New design options for har-flex connectors

Straight and angled connectors are now available as PCB models which, when combined with the connectors for flat ribbon connection, allow PCBs to be combined into complex systems adapted to their surroundings. All har-flex connectors are available with from six to 100 contacts, in increments of two. Fully assembled cables are also available.

The compact but rugged design of the har-flex connectors also guarantees reliable operation under adverse conditions. Two large holders ensure that the connectors are firmly held in place after soldering. A low-wear insertion and withdrawal procedure is achieved by a very smooth contact point between the male and female contacts.

These connectors are delivered in packaging compatible with production machines, and can be processed in the SMT solder process. In spite of the rugged design, har-flex connectors are also suitable for high data rates, which means that they can handle modern transfer protocols such as Gigabit Ethernet or PCI Express.
