Featured Projects

Proven high reliability under the most extreme environmental conditions: severe vibration & shock, high temperature and humidity.

  • Project: Control unit for next generation panoramic vision system
  • Challenge: Stabilised camera to be used in operations under severe shock and vibrations.
  • Solution: Datamate, Gecko & M300 products provided rugged connections, while pre-made cable assemblies eased production.
  • Project: Active Electronically Scanned Array Radar
  • Challenge: Competitor was originally designed-in but customer sought more stable supply chain and better lead-times.
  • Solution: Datamate Mix-Tek SMT power and signal connectors up to 20A reduced the stack height while delivering good power performance.
