element14 addresses design and performance challenges with Amphenol's latest RF connectors for Asia Pacific
Amphenol's newest line of connectors provides reliable solutions

Bangalore, Karnataka, India and Singapore, Wednesday, November 23, 2011 -- (Business Wire India) -- element14 (formerly Farnell), the first electronic component distributor that fuses commerce and community, today announced the expansion of their solutions distribution agreement with Amphenol, the world's leading interconnect solutions manufacturer. element14 now offers Amphenol's newest series of RF connectors and HD-BNC among its most comprehensive stock of about 110,000 connectors, providing engineers with the widest selection of advanced and high performance connectivity solutions.

Connectors are the indispensable linkages that create a functional ecosystem of complex electronic subsystems. As demands in the broadcast and telecommunications sector shift towards miniaturization, engineers seek high density connectivity solutions that address the technological complexity of end products.

The HD-BNC series delivers what the broadcast industry is demanding for in next-generation systems: a superior high density interconnect solution that builds upon the robustness and familiar user experience that BNC has provided for so many years. With element14's unique service propositions, such as their integrated platform for information and transactions, and same day despatch, engineers will be able to access element14's solutions easily, improving time to market.

"This new technology from Amphenol RF allows broadcast, telecommunications and other industries to have some of the highest quality designs for their applications, said Marc Grange, Head of Product Management, element14, Asia Pacific. "This is a great addition to our connector ranges, which is the most comprehensive in the industry. To complement our wide selection of connector solutions, our element14 platform also offers an extensive range of design resources, including technical datasheet, design toolkits and application notes."

Cutting edge, small profile connectivity solutions now available in Asia Pacific
element14's customers can now purchase the latest best-in-class connectors stocked in the region through element14's website. The HD-BNC series is the first small form factor HD-BNC that combines robustness, high density and 75 ohm performance to deliver higher bandwidth and high reliability for broadcast and telecommunications applications.

These components can be configured with a centre-line spacing of 8mm minimum, in comparison to the standard BNC at 15.5. This enables engineers to fit more connectors into a smaller area without compromising performance, allowing engineers to save precious board space and streamline their designs.

Amphenol's propriety design also delivers 400 percent density improvements and a 250 percent improvement over the standard 1.0/2.3 Din. This exceptional series of interconnect products not only meet the specifications of a BNC, they meet and exceed all SMPTE (Society of Motion Picture and Television Engineers) requirements, giving engineers a versatile and high performance solutions for their designs.
