HARTING has introduced metal-cased versions of its compact and versatile Han PushPull range of connectors, opening up new applications for the devices in industrial networks. With the new devices, it is possible to configure a single mechanical interface sealed to IP65/67 and containing inserts for data, power and signal connections. This would allow, for example, a panel feed-through for an industrial Ethernet connection along with a power conne...

The new eCon 3011 from HARTING is a Fast Ethernet media convertor designed for use in industrial environments. It performs signal conversion between shielded twisted-pair cable and multimode or single mode fibre-optic cable, and also supports Power over Ethernet (PoE).

HARTING has introduced a new version of its established Han® 4 A connector insert equipped with the new Han-Quick Lock® termination technology.

HARTING has introduced a new version of its M8 3-pin male connector using the HARAX insulation displacement connection (IDC) fast termination technique.

mCon 1000 from HARTING is a new range of managed Ethernet switches that offers a flexible range of communications options for industrial network applications.

HARTING has introduced a new generation of 8-wire cables and cords suitable for Gigabit Ethernet applications. The new cables have been introduced to address industry requirements for higher bandwidths in ‘future proofed’ commercial and industrial networks, while meeting the growing demands to use materials – such as PUR (polyurethane) and FRNC (flame-retardant non-corrosive) – which comply with ‘green’ and fire-protection requirement...

The new Han 3 A INOX from HARTING is an industrial connector housing made of high-grade steel to provide protection against corrosion for use in food manufacture and related process industries.

The new HARTING Micro Card Edge connector is designed for surface mounting on 1.6 mm thick printed circuit boards in board-to-board mezzanine configurations as well as in small pluggable daughterboard applications.

HARTING has introduced a new industrial Gigabit Ethernet switch, the eCon 2050-AA, which allows the connection of up to five Gigabit Ethernet ports in a very small space.

The new HARTING sCon family of industrial Ethernet switches is the industry’s first to offer ring redundancy on the basis of unmanaged Ethernet switches connected in a ring configuration.

HARTING's M12 connector in crimp format is ideally suited to the requirements of the rail industry, combining, as it does, compact footprint and ease of assembly. The requirement for high-speed transmission of signals and data within trains has led rolling-stock designers to incorporate Ethernet communication links into modern rail vehicles, and the M12 connector is a key device in interfacing between Ethernet switching devices and the various su...

The new HARTING eCon 2160-A is a compact, robust and cost-effective industrial Ethernet switch that allows the connection of up to 16 Ethernet ports in a very small space. The new unit operates as an unmanaged switch in store-and-forward switching mode, and incorporates auto-negotiation, auto-crossing and auto-polarity functions that make it fully 'plug and play'.

The HARTING AdvancedMC plug has been developed to further enhance the contact reliability of the connection of AdvancedMC modules and MicroTCA backplanes. The new connector replaces the card edge and associated gold contact pads of the AdvancedMC module, which can suffer from variable surface quality and unstable tolerances and are expensive to produce. The AdvancedMC Plug, on the other hand, is manufactured using a tightly specified process and ...

The Han Q 12/0 from HARTING is an industrial connector module incorporating 12 crimp contacts, allowing power and signal connections to be combined in a single compact unit. The new module can be used for applications which require power transmission at up to 400 V and 10 A alongside the interfacing of control and diagnosis signals.

At Infrarail 2008, the HARTING Technology Group is featuring a broad range of interconnection solutions for the modern rail industry, including connectors for power and signal transmission as well as industrial Ethernet components to support new networking technologies.

At Southern Electronics 2008, the HARTING Technology Group will be featuring its broad range of electrical and electronics interconnection solutions. The HARTING Technology Group's electronics assembly operation - HARTING Integrated Solutions (HIS) - will also be demonstrating its backplane and sub-assembly capabilities.

HARTING has confirmed the signing of a co-operation agreement with Nexans, the world market leader in the cable industry. This partnership is a logical response to the rising demand for intelligent solutions in the field of industrial automation and will enable both companies to offer a comprehensive range of products in the marketplace. Nexans and HARTING are already producing active systems for Ethernet networks.

A new RJ45 Ethernet module has been added to the HARTING Han-Modular family of heavy-duty industrial connectors. The new Han RJ45 module is a shielded Ethernet module which connects all eight data lines and fulfils Category 5e requirements.

Northern Connectors has won the Harting Electronic Specialist Distributor of the Year award for 2007. The award is made on merit, and is based on sales growth, design-in activity and overall performance. Founded 25 years ago and based in St. Helens, Merseyside, Northern Connectors are specialist distributors of electronic and electromechanical components. The company has sales representation throughout the UK and is committed to providing the hig...

A new insert module with a current rating of 70 A has been added to the Han-Modular range of industrial connectors from HARTING. The new Han 70 A module accommodates two power contacts with axial screw termination, and is rated for voltages of up to 1000 V at 70 A. Although this module has a high electrical power rating, it is only half the size of HARTING's existing 100 A module.
