High performance interconnect maker
Harwin has launched standard 8, 12 and 16
way versions of its rugged Hot Shoe
connector technology which enables rapid
and simple connection, yet tolerates mating
misalignment and resists dust, water, and
chemical ingress.
Harwin’s Hot Shoe connectors are extremely
robust, providing optimum reliability
throughout a product's entire lifecycle. They
employ spring loaded contacts, which
maintain a positive contact force against the
mating half of the connector, to ensure
reliable connection even under the most
demanding conditions. Fabricated using
highly durable plastics, the connectors can
be polarised to eliminate the possibility of
mis-mating.

New standard Hot Shoe connectors are
highly suited for use in a broad spectrum of
applications, whether in the combat arena
or in less harsh environments. These
include portable equipment in which
separate battery modules are used; data
transfer docking stations; and for battery
charging and data communications
equipment. Other applications include
thermal imaging cameras, in-vehicle
detachable equipment, and hand held
scanners.
Previously, Hot Shoe technology connectors
have only been available as custom designs,
and the 8-, 12- and 16-way versions now
being launched as standard products are
based upon designs that have proved most
popular in the past. However, since Harwin
retains in-house manufacturing capabilities,
ranging from initial design consultation to
full production, the company is happy to
work together with customers on full custom
Hot Shoe connector designs.
