Omnetics - Nano-Miniature Interconnectors

Omnetics Connector Company is a privately held, world class connector design and manufacturing company with over 25 years of experience focused on micro-miniature and nano-miniature high-reliability electrical connectors and interconnection systems.

Omnetics offers a wide range of products, including:

• Micro and nano strip connectors
• Micro and nano circular connectors
• World-class Nano Bi-Lobe® (a QPL rectangular connector family)
• New Latching Bi-Lobe® nano-connector
• Polarized nano-connectors

In addition, Omnetics manufactures custom connector assemblies.

Aerospace and defence interconnects

Omnetics is an interconnect supplier to the defence and civil aerospace markets with products supplied to the world’s leading projects and applications including fighter jets, helicopters, missiles, unmanned vehicles, artillery systems and civil aircraft.

Miniature and Nano connectors qualifications for rugged applications

Omnetics proprietary (Flex-Pin) passes the tests specified in Mil-83513 for micro (0.050in / 1.27 mm pitch) connectors and has approved QPL status on the new Mil-32139 specification for nano (0.025in / 0.64 mm pitch) connectors. This robust contact system is the perfect fit for quality conscious industries including military, aerospace, medical, instrumentation and other high-technology oriented OEMs. Ruggedized nano-miniature connectors using 0.025in pitch solve mil/aero demands for reduced space interconnects.

Nano-miniature connectors

Prototype modules can be assembled quickly using COTS and standards to help finalize fit and function with long delivery delays. Metal nano-miniature connectors can reduce circuit weight and space while allowing increased signal lines. Unique shapes for miniaturized modules can be quickly derived from existing shapes using high-speed CNC machining to allow full custom mounting or fit in difficult areas.

Quick deliveries are typically "off-the-shelf" to 8 weeks. Special machining may require additional time. Applications: Nano-connectors are currently used in mil / aero circuits to reduce size & weight while maintaining high reliability.
