A new application note from ITT Interconnect Solutions describes customer-requested solutions for mass-transit applications that require complex integrated interconnects. Based on VEAM connectors, such integrated components include complete harnessing systems such as junction box assemblies that integrate directly into mass-transit vehicle designs. VEAM interconnects are available in an array of shell sizes and contact arrangements to meet the mo...

PEI-Genesis has brought out a new cable-assembly ‘cook book’ that provides a step-by-step guide to designing, specifying and building cable assemblies. Starting with a number of standard cable design ‘recipes’, the cook book uses a simple selection chart to help customers choose an appropriate design to match their requirements for criteria such as cable type, shielding and sealing.

At the last Vision trade show, GigE – as an alternative to FireWire, USB, and CameraLink – was referred to as the new future standard. The first camera manufacturers have already presented camera specific cables for the consumer market. However, the industrial market for visual automation demands that the Ethernet cables tolerate high mechanical loads. igus® have developed the world’s first GigE cable for continuous dynamic ...
