Each of these cabling products incorporates a flat cable with female connectors at both ends, making it easier for engineers to install Archer Kontrol devices in systems. Available cable lengths are 150mm or 300mm, although other lengths can be ordered with the corresponding lead time. IDC's design offers engineers a highly flexible, low-profile solution that can be bent considerably to fit into tight spaces. The horizontal cable exit orientation also saves significant space above the connector.
The new cabling products are compatible with any number of pins within this connector family (12, 16, 20, 26, 32, 40, 50, 68, and 80). A gold-plated metallic finish is applied to the contact areas for significantly increased durability. A highly effective locking mechanism ensures the cable is securely held in place, resisting vibrations and accidental disconnections. The components are optimized for modern industrial installations, capable of achieving data transmission speeds of up to 3 Gbps.
Demand for Archer Kontrol connectors has seen significant growth over the past two years, and they are used in industrial drives, industrial automation systems, IIoT, robotics, rugged portable equipment, and other applications. They exhibit strong resistance to vibration, mechanical shock, high humidity, and extreme temperatures typical of modern industrial facilities. Furthermore, their covered contacts prevent potential damage from poor connections and ensure long-term interconnect integrity.
