What Connectors can be Applied to the Drone?

As an RF Coaxial Connector Factory, share with you. Connectors for drone applications must be small, lightweight, rugged, reliable, and versatile because they withstand a variety of harsh environments. When specifying a connector, consider the following:

Size, weight and shape

If fuel is saved, drones can fly longer or longer. Therefore, in order to save fuel and weight, it is very important to use micro lightweight connectors.

To track signals from remote operators or turn on / off reconnaissance equipment, the drone will also require about four machined contacts, each of which will carry 3A. Circular connectors are desirable because they can be installed more easily in tight spaces. The small, lightweight brass housing connector is rugged and resistant to salt water and various chemicals, making it ideal for drone applications. As a metal, the brass housing also provides EMI / RFI shielding, which can be further enhanced with a small, lightweight 30AWG shielded cable. With PEEK inserts, the connectors are rated from -40 ° C to + 200 ° C and can be terminated to rugged Teflon-sheathed cables. Alternatively, highly flexible HFS (flame retardant and zero halogen) 2A, 30AWG cables rated from -40 ° C to + 100 ° C can be used. One connector on the market provides front and rear IP67 water resistance through two internal Viton O-rings. These features make it a universal connector.

Anti-vibration

Connectors can be screwed together using hexagonal knurling, which provides three options when securing micro-connectors so that they do not become mated under high vibration conditions. Wire holes in the ridges of straight cable plugs-Customers can pass wires through these holes and secure the wires to their equipment or panel. Wire hole with quick-lock system – Customers can pass the supplied spring wire through the wire hole. The spring wire is caught on the thread and prevents the connector from coming off. The ends of the spring wire can be bent to prevent it from coming out of the wire hole. The other end of the spring wire is wrapped around the cable, so the spring wire is not lost and can be reused multiple times.

The mating socket contains a silicone O-ring-the cheapest method. When the connectors are mated, the O-ring can serve as a washer, and its resistance prevents the tiny mating connector from coming off. This is the ideal solution and is recommended for use with minimal vibration.

In the past, these specifications required multiple connectors. Now, one connector can provide all of these functions.
