Rapid Mate Connectors

These connectors provide the ease and reliability of Hot Shoe style mating with the added benefit of integral filtering.

Rapid Mate connectors offer mating via spring-loaded, compliant contacts. This method provides a rapid connection with low mating force and allows for some misalignment during mating. These contacts also provide a positive mating force to ensure a reliable connection.

APITech can design a filtered, Rapid Mate connector, specifically for each application, providing the advantages of HotShoe style mating with required filtering to ensure system functionality in electronic interference prone environments.
