Connectors for Demanding Applications
ELECTRONICS EVERYWHERE
In today’s environment, where electronics are everywhere, electronic equipment must operate under
severe environmental, mechanical and electrical conditions, as well as tough regulatory conditions
and high consumer expectations. This poses extreme challenges to the design and manufacture of
that equipment.
Additionally, the equipment must withstand frequent use over many years both by experts and less
experienced users. All of this has an impact on the design of components such as connectors.
At FCI we truly understand this.
THE FCI ADVANTAGE
At FCI we are concerned with helping you grow your business profitably. Our connectors for
demanding applications are designed to offer an advantage that will make a difference to you.
Modular systems suited for many applications offer an opportunity to reduce component engineering
costs. Hermaphroditic “mates to itself” connector systems reduce supply chain & inventory costs.
Surface mount and reflow process compatible PCB connectors help reduce manufacturing costs.
Reliable contact systems providing as many as 100,000 mating cycles extend the use of product
by years, thus eliminating the cost of redesigns or upgrades and providing a future-proof platform.
EXPLORE FCI’S CAPABILITIES
FCI provides industry standard connectors while adding specific features relevant to the demand-
ing applications described above. Are you looking for proven, standard connector systems with
high durability cycles, extended temperature ranges, reliable contact systems and tight co-planarity
specifications? Or do you need the products to be specifically tailored to your unique application?
In either case, FCI may well have the perfect interconnect solution for you.
