High performance interconnect systems manufacturer Nicomatic has showcased the aero modular EN4165 Optimus connector at DSEI 2021. The versatile low-profile, user-configurable rectangular I/O connector series is high density and space-saving compared to circular connectors.

The Optimus EN4165 aero rectangular series enables designers to specify layout, including signal and power contacts. Optimus interconnects are:

• Able to withstand 500 mating and de-mating cycles
• High shock, vibration and extreme temperature tolerant
• Able to protect against EMI
• Waterproof
• Fully interchangeable with existing EN4165 solutions

Optimus connectors are a space-saving and stackable solution designed for equipment interface connection to a harness or in rack & panel installations.

Also launching at DSEI 2021 is the new DBMM Series – Nicomatic’s DMM 2mm connectors now with fully integrated backshells. DBMM connectors save space, measuring only 15mm front to back, are easy to handle and offer excellent EMI protection. Qualified to MIL-DTL-83513, two models are available: DBMM220 (4 to 32 contacts) and DBMM320 (6 to 48 contacts). They suit high power and high frequency applications such as missile systems, military aircraft and radar systems.

Specialising in micro connectors for civil and military aerospace applications, Nicomatic is showcasing its extensive portfolio of modular, highly-configurable and custom interconnects on Stand H2-872 at DSEI 2021.
