For the seventh consecutive year, Selwyn Electronics will be exhibiting at this year’s Southern Manufacturing show in Farnborough, from the 21st to the 23rd of March, stand number G104.

Every year, new and interesting products are added to Selwyn’s range and this year is no exception, when they will be displaying a number of new products from their wide range of connectors and cable assemblies.

With 33 years’ experience of manufacturing and supplying interconnect products around the world they certainly warrant their claim to be “The Interconnection Specialist”, and the Southern Manufacturing show gives them a chance to show this.

This year’s Selwyn stand will display a sample selection of Selwyn’s wide range of connectors and cable assemblies, with particular emphasis on circular connectors, BGA sockets and adapters, waterproof connectors and cable assemblies, and ODU Mac multi-contact industrial and test connectors. Aside from these feature products, they will also be displaying a selection from their complete range, including board to board connectors, high speed RF connectors and cables, data transmission connectors, and some interesting custom designed and manufactured connectors. These custom connectors particularly demonstrate their claim to be the interconnection specialist, as this isn’t something that other suppliers can always offer. On display will also be a range of custom and standard cable assemblies, to give an overview of their thorough manufacturing capabilities.

Within Selwyn’s range of circular connectors, in both waterproof and non-waterproof options, they will be showing for the first time some of their latest high density and high data speed products, including USB and Ethernet signal transmission connectors for use in hazardous or high vibration environments. They will also have on display their wide range of plastic waterproof connectors and cable assemblies, with numerous sizes and locking styles. These waterproof connectors include D-Type, USB (standard, Mini and Micro sizes), RJ45 and HDMI, as well as the more traditional circular multi contact style.  The circular multi contact style of waterproof connectors are available in 5 sizes, with 3 locking mechanisms, and with mixed signal and power contact options within one housing.

One interesting new addition to the range from last year is their ODU Mac multi-contact, modular rectangular connector. This range offers a perfect connection system when different types of connection are required within a single housing. These connectors offer up to 100,000 mating cycles, blind mating, and a mixture of contacts offering high speed data transmission, high power, fibre optic, and even pneumatic connections. They are perfect for testing applications or when multi connections are needed.

If you are searching for a connector that doesn’t meet all your requirements, then don’t discount a custom solution. This is something Selwyn have provided many times over the past 33 years to their customers. Wherever possible Selwyn try to modify an existing part, or utilise existing tooling, to keep costs down and to provide samples quickly, but they can also manufacture custom connectors from scratch too at surprisingly low costs, and on short lead times.

To complement their range of connectors, and provide a complete interconnection service, Selwyn offer a custom cable assembly manufacturing service, with factories in both the UK and China. This means that they can offer the perfect manufacturing facility for every style or volume of assemblies required. And with ISO9001 certification, and thorough testing and inspection at both factories, you can be assured of high quality, reliable assemblies every time. They can even provide design assistance and drawings, when this is required.

It’s all well and good to have a great range of products or fantastic technical support but ultimately it is the service offered which is most important, and that is why this is Selwyn’s number one priority. Selwyn have always offered the best possible customer service and support, and that is what they aim to continue to do. Whether it’s stockholding, custom labelling, custom packaging or just a reliable supplying service, Selwyn offer it all.

So, if you are planning to come to this year’s show, and have any interest at all in connectors or cable assemblies then it’s definitely worth stopping by at the Selwyn stand G104. Whether you need advice to help decide the best interconnection solution for your product, or you have already identified the right product and are trying to save on costs with a reliable new supplier, why not give Selwyn a try.
