High Power Connectors
Hyperboloid
®
Technology
Sabritec’s High Power connectors utilize the superior performing Hyperboloid® contact technology, ideal for harsh
and demanding environments with low contact resistance. These connectors provide high current ratings with smaller
contacts for the same power thus saving overall weight and space.
Key Features:
• Low coupling force
• Improved low rate of wear and high coupling durability
• Shock and vibration resistance
• Operate in harsh environments
• Reduced contact resistance
• Contact elements can be insulated, to enable multi-pole use (coaxial)
• Contact mating sequence can be used to gain benefits such as power
