Fischer Freedom Delivers Easy Mating, Cleaning and Integration

April 20, 2020

Fischer Freedom SeriesFischer has launched nine new products to add to the capability of the Fischer Freedom™ Series. The new products enable significant design advancements, particularly in terms of SWaP (Size, Weight and Power) requirements, cable management optimization, electronic network integration and wearable technology.

The new features, new configurations, new materials and new active devices use the versatile and modular connectivity technology of the Fischer LP360™ connector, the first product of the plug & use Fischer Freedom™ Series launched in 2018.

 Fischer Freedom™ enables design engineers to integrate more technology and functionality into fixed or wearable ecosystems and cable-free devices in markets such as: defense & security, medical, instrumentation, industrial and civil engineering, robotics, wearables, the Internet of Things (IoT), etc.

The new USB 2.0 adaptor, LED and flash drive have the Fischer LP360™ panel plug directly integrated into their housing. This opens up new development pathways for innovative active solutions integrated into electronic networks where power source and communications are centralized within shared data & power buses and hubs. As for the new cabled receptacle in metal with 7 signal and power contacts, it is a ready-to-use solution that also maximizes the usability, operability and functionality of robotic systems or smart vests into which it can easily be integrated. These solutions are ideally used in applications for portable and body-worn “wearables”, among others, for the so-called “connected human” – a huge trend in the connectivity sector –, as well as in IoT applications.
