ODU launches connector for railroad sector
ODU
Category 5 connector
ODU from Muhldorf has developed a new Category 5 connector for the transmission of data rates under difficult environmental conditions in the railroad technology sector.
The connectors can handle data transmission rates of up to 100Mbit/100MHz and can stand up to vibration, wear debris from brakes, dirt and moisture.
EMC protection of 360deg ensures that the data transmission is impervious to outside influences.
The use of ODU springwire contacts guarantees more than 50,000 mating cycles.
The springwire technology also ensures high transmission reliability in the face of vibration and temperature fluctuations.
The use of light materials such as aluminum for the housing is also advantageous and allows weight savings in even the smallest components.
Because there are few components, assembly is simple and quick.
The ODU CAT5 can be quickly assembled to common data rate cables.
GHMT certification makes the new connection system suitable for use under severe environmental conditions.
