Connector range supported by adaptor kit
Harting has upgraded its range of D-Sub filtered connectors and has introduced an evaluation kit that allows users to select the optimum filter to meet their RFI suppression requirements.
New manufacturing techniques have allowed Harting to offer filtered connectors with enhanced performance, providing a more effective solution for designers who need to minimise the effects of conducted and radiated RFI emissions or to protect equipment against transient high voltages The filter evaluation kit includes 32 adaptors, providing a range of different filter characteristics to cover most scenarios likely to be encountered by the equipment designer

A Fast Ethernet media converter is designed to ease the migration to optical-fibre communication where electrical Ethernet data transmission reaches the limits of its performance.
Harting Ethernet switch offers high availability
Harting's industrial Ethernet switches range is believed to be the first to offer ring redundancy to achieve high system availability, while simplifying network configuration and ease of operation.
Selecting the optimum filter is simply a matter of plugging in the various adaptors and viewing the filtered and unfiltered signals on an oscilloscope.
Harting's filtered D-Sub connectors use internal surface-mount circuitry to provide a variety of filter functions.
The connector design not only allows segregation of the filtering for each contact, but also enables filters of different types to be incorporated to provide an optimum solution.
For example, a single standard D-Sub shell housing can include a capacitive/inductive pi filter or a transient protection device.
The D-Sub filter connector family includes standard male/female, solder-cup/straight/right-angle devices with 9, 15, 25 or 37 pins, plus a large range of accessories.
Custom solutions can also be implemented with different filter characteristics on a contact-by-contact approach.
The connectors are designed to enable systems to comply with FCC part 15, IEC 1000 and EN 5502 specifications, and are suitable for military, aerospace, industrial, medical, telecom and computer applications.
All Harting filtered D-Sub connectors are compatible with the high-temperature re-flow soldering processes used in surface-mount assembly.
