Smiths Interconnect KVPX Connectors White Paper
Smiths Interconnect KVPX Connectors White Paper explores fretting corrosion in ruggedized backplane connectors. This paper highlights causes like vibration, thermal cycling, and shock that degrade performance. The solutions include enhanced contact force, lubrication, locking mechanisms, and redundancy. These connectors are built using Hypertac Hyperboloid technology for superior reliability, signal integrity, and high mating cycles.
