Harting has introduced a range of connectivity solutions for high-density cabling for HD video signal-transfer applications in outside-broadcast vans and production trucks as well as modular flight-case flyaway suites and de-rig systems.
The company's compact 75Ω coaxial contacts can be accommodated in DIN41626 compatible four-way multi-contact inserts which then fit into the rugged IP65 Han-Modular series connectors. There are different coaxial contacts suitable for use with RG-59 and lightweight RG-179 video cables, allowing SMPTE 292M HD-SDI 1.5GHz and up to SMPTE 424M HD 1080p/60 3GHz signal transfer.
The company ensures controlled connector mating through the use of additional alignment guide pins and bushes in the HanR B series of hoods and housings. According to the company, the Han-Modular flexible mixed insert design concept allows integrated video, audio and data signal transfer in one compact connector housing, if required. A range of cable glands is available, and threaded entry areas can accommodate standard conduit fittings to maintain IP65 protection if separate mixed cables are used, claims the company.
