Nano-Miniature Connectors offer tool-free thumbscrew option.
May 30, 2008 -
Available in 9-65 way, dual- or single-row configurations, 0.635 mm pitch Bi-lobe® connectors are housed in metal shell and polarized to prevent mis-mating. Optionally available thumbscrew attach-and-release mechanism, supplied instead of jackscrews, provides accelerated and ruggedized means for assembly without tools. Connectors ensure signal integrity, satisfying Mil-Std-32139 where 100 G shock and 20 G vibration discontinuities must be less than 10 nsec.

Omnetics Adds Thumbscrew Option Simplifying Bi-Lobe Connector Assembly
brand-leading 0.635mm connector family needs no tools
Omnetics Connector Corporation, the leading USA manufacturer of miniature high rel connectors has announced that its brand-leading, nano-miniature, 0.635mm pitch Bi-lobe® connector family is now optionally available with a thumb-screws attach and release mechanism instead of jackscrews, providing a quick, durable and rugged assembly mechanism without the need for tools.
Standard Bi-lobe connectors are available in 9-65 way, dual or single row configurations, housed in a robust metal shell and polarized to prevent mis-mating. Omnetics' Bi-lobe connectors ensure signal integrity even in conditions where high shock and vibration are experienced, satisfying Mil-Std-32139 which specifies that for 100G shock and 20G vibration discontinuities must be less than 10 nanoseconds.
Comments Gary Evans, European Sales Manager: "By providing the option of choosing a thumb-screw, we are simplifying the assembly process without compromising on performance. We expect designers of military equipment, especially, to benefit from this new development."
