An innovative SATA (Serial Advanced Technology Attachment) solution will be showcased at DSEI 2015 by Smiths Connectors. The Nebula Series is a highly reliable SATA 6.0 Gbps connector for high-speed data rates with 100ohm impedance matching and minimal losses. The connector utilises the industry standard PCB soldering footprint ensuring no need for change or modification of SATA drive layouts.

DSEi 2015 will provide a platform for Smiths Connectors to launch it latest conector series. The company will highlight its innovative SATA 6.0Gbps connectors (Nebula Series), designed and manufactured to ensure optimal performance, reliability, durability and safety in critical military and defence applications.

A rugged high speed addition to Smiths Connectors’ D-Sub Series has been introduced. This line of high-impedance connectors is offered with 150ohm Quadrax contacts. It has been designed to ground the outer shield Quadrax directly to the shell of the connector, providing minimal RF noise, a compelling differentiator amongst D-Sub offerings.  

Smiths Connectors has received a High and New Technology Certification from the Chinese Government for a fourth series of semiconductor test products. The connector specialist received this latest recognition for the development of its 0.20mm – 0.40mm diameter high-speed spring probe for use in 3D Package on Package (PoP) Euclid Test Sockets.

Smiths Connectors’ HyperGrip (HG) circular plastic connector Series are engineered specifically for the medical industry. The connectors offer a wide range of benefits including user-configurability, an aesthetic design with push-pull latching for easy one-hand mating, and various sealing and shielding options.

In January 2015, the Rosetta spacecraft successfully landed its Philae probe on the surface of comet 67P/Churyumov–Gerasimenko. Smiths Connectors' K and CMD/CSD series connectors were chosen for critical board-to-board interconnects in ground and navigation equipment, and for the satellite’s on-board S and X-band Deep Space Transponder, necessary for the probe to communicate its findings back to Earth.
