ODU-UK Ltd will once again support their distributor Selwyn Electronics. On display will be lots of new products, including the latest additions to the AMC (Advanced Military Connector) range.

  • Push-pull
  • Break-away
  • Screw locking - a built-in serrated trapezoidal thread ensures additional safety.

This means OEM's now have a choice of an appropriate locking mechanism at each connection point, whilst retaining the same standard bulkhead connector across all the equipment.

Another new solution on display will be the new seven-pole insert for the ODU-AMC@ high-density Series.

In a size O shell but with a larger 0.7mm contact for higher robustness, the seven-pole configuration offers a future-proof alternative to other six-pole NETT-Warrior connectors, together with a significant performance increase.

ODU connectors ensure a reliable transmission of power, signals, data and media for a variety of demanding applications, including military and security, medical technology, eMobility, energy, industrial electronics and measurement & testing. To support ever-faster electronics equipment innovation, suppliers need not only a wide range of standard products but must be fast and responsive when only a customer-specific solution will neatly solve the problem.
