An Engineer’s Guide to Understanding Connector for use in Harsh Industrial Environments
Connectors are often seen as the weakest link between sub-systems, and sometimes this is rightly so. This can be as a result of underspecifying the connector system or not appreciating the difference between the various rating schemes. As a result engineers tend to over-specify the connectors to ensure they are reliable and don't impact on the performance of the rest of the system, or they use the interconnect parts list off previous designs.
Unfortunately, this can lead to connectors that are larger and more expensive than they need to be. This has been particularly apparent when we have had discussions with industrial developers when they have quoted military specifications.
