[ClickPress, Thu Mar 13 2008] Mouser Electronics, Inc., known for its rapid introduction of the newest products, today announced it is now stocking the Johnson® line of SMP blind-mate connectors from Emerson Network Power Connectivity Solutions. Providing unmatched flexibility, the connectors can correct axial and radial misalignment and they are compatible with all SMP and GPO® connectors.

“Both the design engineering community and our suppliers rely on Mouser to supply the newest products available to the marketplace,” according to Barry McConnell, Mouser Vice President of Product Marketing. “By stocking new products like these from Johnson, Mouser is able to fulfill its commitment to both suppliers and design engineers alike.”

The SMP blind-mate connectors can handle frequencies up to 40GHz and are available in several different configurations to meet the needs of high-frequency applications. The offering includes full and limited detent snap-on interfaces, as well as smooth bore and catcher’s mitt slide-on interfaces which provide different levels of engage and disengage coupling force. The full detent snap-on interface is typically used for cabled connections where a tighter lock is required and the limited detent is used in PCB mounts or blind-mate applications. The two slide-on interfaces allow for axial misalignment and both have the same engage/disengage force. The design of the catcher’s mitt interface facilitates a more exact connection and is typically specified for blind-mate applications.

To achieve optimum performance, the new line includes 26 different connectors and adapters, as well as nine new assembly tools. Detailed assembly instructions are available and industry standard tooling is used to ensure optimum performance.

Known for its broad-based product line, unsurpassed customer service, and streamlined warehouse operations, Mouser continuously offers customers the most innovative products and latest technologies for their new design projects.
