For those of you that follow this blog you’ll know that I am a fan of high speed data and especially new innovative ways of interfacing technology.
I am quite pleased to see the new high speed data connectors from Tyco, the Fas-T connectors.
In short these are Ethernet Connectors in the circular mill-spec style for harsh environments. We have all seen industrial and IP68 Ethernet connectors, however, this is specifically made-for high end Ethernet connector series for truly harsh environments.
What is good about these connectors are the way they maintain the data integrity of the cable twisted pairs and offer the design engineer the opportunity to use Ethernet where previously this would not have been an option.
Because Ethernet is a simple yet very fast media this should be widely adopted and become common place in the future.
Here is a link to the Tyco product video, enjoy!
