LP360™

Ürün Tanımı

BREAKTHROUGH LOW-PROFILE CONNECTIVITY

Fischer LP360™ is a range of versatile, plug and use connectivity solutions that includes connectors, cable assemblies and active devices to maximize usability, efficiency and performance. The connectors have no key code, providing 360° mating freedom for optimized cable management. Membrane-sealed contacts ensure a fully cleanable connector (both plug and receptacle). Low profile allows for easy integration in any environment. Discover our Tests & Proofs videos.

The Fischer LP360™ 7-pin connector in metal, launched in June 2018, was extended with nine new products in September 2019 to provide added versatility for a wide range of applications and markets.

The new connectivity solutions are low-profile, rugged and durable, making use of the Fischer LP360™ technological innovations, i.e. 360^° mating freedom and sealed, blind-mate and non-magnetic quick-release locking:

• Size 14, 7 signal & power contacts with cabled receptacle (1) and panel plug (2), and new active devices: USB 2.0 adaptor (3), LED (4) and Rugged Flash Drive (5)
• Size 08 with 4 signal & power contacts in plastic (high-end composite based on PEEK) with cabled plug (6) and panel receptacle (7), and in metal with panel receptacle (8) and panel plug (9).
