HARTING MicroTCA connector passes ‘rugged’ test
The HARTING MicroTCA connector has successfully passed the latest tests established by the PICMG Group for the ‘Rugged MicroTCA’ PICMG specification. The HARTING con:card+ connector for MicroTCA backplanes and the plug connector for AdvancedMC modules passed the vibration sine and shock test of the MTCA.1 ‘Rugged Air Cooled’ specification without contact interruptions.
The The design of the HARTING MicroTCA con:card+ connector featuring the patented Guidespring contact is a key factor contributing to these results, and is playing a major part in supporting the further development of the ‘Rugged MicroTCA’ specification.
