The REDEL MP Series also introduces high contact density modules, an innovation that allows up to 144 contacts in a compact connector by using the Card Edge concept. These PCB modules can be further customised with the integration of intelligence, such as an EEPROM.

The flexible and interchangeable design allows for the easy transition to a different configuration for future product generations, without having to change the connector footprint. Additionally, full cable assembly options are also available.
