The new miniaturised Ethernet interface, ix Industrial, from HARTING, aims to set a new standard for IP20 Ethernet connections. Ethernet is the dominant communication standard for industrial applications, and the popular RJ45 connector has become the standard interface for Ethernet connections.

Small, wireless and networked describes more than the latest household gadget.At Draper, medical implants are slimming down and getting connected, too. Draper’s latest system is tiny in size, but is poised to make a big impact in treating disease through its networked abilities.A driving factor in the new implant design is the growing awareness that disease often involves complex interactions between multiple systems in the body.

HARTING has added three new versions to its Easy Access series of housings for its D-Sub InduCom family of industrial Bus interface connectors. The new models, with 25, 15 and 9-poles respectively and three straight cable-entry points each, complement the existing 50-pole and 37-pole units, each having three straight cable-entry points. The straight cable inputs lead to easier and faster assembly, even under cramped space conditions.

Amphenol Socapex has announced its latest member of the high speed connector family, a Cat.6A, 10Gb/s Ethernet solution packed into a MIL-DTL-38999 Series III derived shell: The TVµCom-10Gb+.

The MAF1005G series of noise suppression filters for audio lines has been expanded by TDK Corporation, with four new MAF1005GAD-D types, which, thanks to their low DC resistance, feature a high rated current of up to 1.25A.

As medical devices become smaller and more connected, Steve Rogerson looks at how the electronics industry is coping.Worldwide, the health industry is in the middle of a revolution that is seeing more and more people take control of their own well-being. Hospitals stretched beyond capacity are welcoming the move to patients being cared for in their own homes using remote monitoring equipment. Consumers are buying wearable devices that can measure...

As the world races ahead to develop increasingly advanced technology, electronic devices are becoming more compact, allowing more complexity and functionality to be packed into smaller spaces.Mechanical and hydraulic components in the industrial sector are now being replaced by highly sophisticated electronics and telematics, enabling the development of automated production lines, robotics and machine-to-machine (M2M) communication.

The launch of a new, rugged micro connector has been announced by Nicomatic, with the 1.27mm pitch EMM series, which targets defence and other high-reliability applications. Designed to meet the performance requirements of MIL 83513, EMM series connectors occupy 40% less space than previous generation connectors from the company.

Ferroelectric Memory Company (FMC) hasannounced the successful closing of a €4.6m growth financing led by eCAPITAL entrepreneurial Partners AG under participation of High-Tech Gründerfonds. The funds will enable the company with base in Dresden to expand its team, accelerate the further development of their solutions and conquer a significant market share by replacing the current standard technology.

Panasonic Industry has announced its sponsorship of the WARR Hyperloop team from the Technical University in Munich (TUM) which is taking part in the third annual SpaceX Hyperloop Pod Competition this summer. The Hyperloop is a new transportation concept for a high speed train to travel in a near-vacuum tube. The vacuum-tube allows the capsule to travel at supersonic speed - faster than any commercial train or car in the foreseeable future.
