Three things to look for when purchasing wire
25 May, 2012To ensure that the wire you buy can be easily installed and get the job done, look for three key factors that signal high-quality wire: the wire is produced using length control techniques to make sure you get what you paid for; insulation is applied using co-extrusion; and, the wire is inspected with quality control equipment that measures dimensional control, detects defects and tests for PVC insulation integrity.

Docking systems - a special kind of connector
29 April, 2012 by Dr Ing Wolfgang Jacobi, ODUThe term ‘docking systems’ might not mean much to most readers. Perhaps they would think of their laptop, which is placed on to a docking station, or they might think of an airplane that docks.
ODU MAC - the jack of all trades
29 April, 2012 by Dr Ing Wolfgang JacobiA developer once told me, "I throw out the connectors wherever possible. They take up space, they cost money and they are one of the main causes for device failures." The man was right. But: globally, there are more than 2000 connector manufacturers, there are more than 200 completely different basic series (D-SUB, RJ45, USB, DIN cylindrical connector, etc) and there are individual manufacturers who produce more than 10,000, 50,000 or even 100,000 different models. Then why? Because such a wide variety of connectors is necessary!
