Fischer Connectors introduces a new NATO STANAG 4695-compatible connector for use in harsh operating environments.
The global connectivity solution provider Fischer Connectors has extended its portfolio of ultra-ruggedised and harsh-environment connectors with two new products.
Fischer UltiMate 80 is a ‘field-ready NATO STANAG 4695-compatible connector offering unparalleled functionality and ruggedness in comparison with similar harsh-environment quick-release connectors’, the company announced on 15 April.

The ruggedised design of UltiMate 80 is compliant with MIL-STD-810 and MIL-STD-202.
The other new product is a standard UltiMate connector in size 15 with various pin layouts of up to 27 signal and power contacts. It meets special power and high-speed data requirements for further design and technology developments with various contact layouts.
