microComp Quicklatch Ultralight Miniature Connector for Aeronautics
An alternative to the D-subminiature connector, the new microComp Quicklatch is a 100% composite miniature quick connector designed particularly for use on in-flight entertainment screens aboard commercial aircraft. It is 32% smaller and 45% lighter than a D-sub and can save as much as the equivalent of the weight of one passenger on modern civil aircraft. Released just six months ago, the microComp Quicklatch is already being used on Airbus A350...
