Huber+Suhner to launch connectors for aerospace applications
Herisau, Germany. Huber+Suhner, an international manufacturer of components and systems for optical and electrical connectivity, announced it will launch at IMS 2018 its PSM connector series, which optimizes size and power-handling characteristics for space-flight, high-altitude-platform, and thermal-vacuum (TVAC) environments.
The PSM connector family has the size and weight of an SMA (SubMiniature version A) connector and the power-handling capabilities of a TNC (Threaded Neill–Concelman) connector per MIL-PRF-39012 and MIL-STD-348, enabling customers to maximize performance on power handling while minimizing overall system weight and size. This series is fully space qualified per MIL-PRF-39012 and ESCC 3402, offering multipaction-breakdown and corona-withstanding capabilities meeting or exceeding those of the TNC interface level.
The PSM Series enables customers to maximize power performance while minimizing overall system weight, size, and expenditure, obtaining a cost-effective solution that surpasses the current industry standard in terms of features vs cost, the company said.
The hermetic, multipaction, and corona-free-design product portfolio includes a variety of cable connectors, flanged/panel-mount connectors and adaptors, ensuring a compatible solution when incorporating the PSM product range in new and existing systems.
“We are thrilled to present the latest addition to our portfolio at IMS 2018. This year, we are focused on meeting the increasing demand of cost-effective solutions for power-demanding and weight-sensitive applications,” said Ana Maria Grigonis, product portfolio manager at Huber+Suhner.
The PSM connector portfolio, alongside an extensive range of connectivity solutions from Huber+Suhner will be on display at IMS 2018, June 10-15 in Philadelphia.
