Durability under harsh environments

Even under extreme ambient temperatures ranging from –40 °C to +120 °C, the ODU MINI‐SNAP® ensures a reliable connection.

Reliable locking

In an emergency, the break‐away function allows mating and demating in less than one second. Push‐pull locking ensures that the connection is extremely secure – once the metal connector is mated, the ODU MINI‐SNAP® locks itself into the receptacle. The connector can only be released by pulling back the outer sleeve, but not simply by pulling on the cable.

Versatile connection configurations

We offer a comprehensive assembly service: You choose the number of contacts, size, design, and cable connection. The ODU MINI‐SNAP® offers numerous configuration options – and thus a high degree of flexibility with minimal installation effort.
