ODU-MAC® Blue-Line
Modular connectors for high flexibility
The ODU‐MAC® Blue‐Line includes connectors that offer an ideal manual‐mating solution, as well as variants for automatic docking. Thanks to their modular design, you can choose from different frame sizes and modules as well as housing types – for a customized system. This means that a wide range of transmission media can be combined in one connector tailored to your specific application.
- Ultra‐compact connector
- Clip‐in assembly/removal of the modules without tools
- Wide range of locking options (e. g., spindle, lever, push‐pull)
- Transmission types: signal, power, high current, RF signal (coax), compressed air, fluid coupling, data, and fiber optic
- Wide range of plastic and metal housings
- Easy replacement of crimp‐clip contacts, even when assembled
