New connector developments for industrial and medical applications

ODU are presenting some of its new connector developments at the Southern Manufacturing and Electronics on 3rd–5th February 2026.

Some of the newest products include:

• ODU MINI-SNAP: Robust metal circular connectors in four series: L, K, B, and F – each with push-pull locking or break-away and with solder, print or crimp terminations.

Up to IP68 and over 5,000 cycles, and an interface diameter of 6.4mm.

Series L, K, and B – pin and groove coding, with 20 – 40 contacts

Series F- half-shell, up to 27 pins

• ODU MEDI-SNAP: Space‐saving design, high contact density, and right-angled options, the plastic-bodied ODU MEDI‐SNAP ensures top performance. Push‐pull or break‐away with mechanical and optical coding. High‐voltage up to 1,000VAC, touch protection IEC 60601–1 (2 MOPP / 2 MOOP), fully sterilizable, minimal installation and maintenance.
• ODU-MAC Rectangular High Current: High-Current Modules have now been added with reliable 12mm contacts and conductor cross-sections of 25mm², 35mm² or 50mm² available.
• Rectangular Push-Lock Medical – an ODU-MAC Blue-Line connector tailored to medical use - compact, easy handling with maximum flexibility, incorporating an intuitive push-pull locking mechanism ensuring a fast, secure and error-free connection.

The modularity of the system allows individual adaptation to the specific requirements of the application, including the transmission of signal, data and power.

• ODU-MAC Mass Interconnect range adds a half-rack Compact Class: The existing variants of the ODU-MAC Black-Line offer up to 4,608 signal points, making them real heavyweights in test and measurement. However, not every customer needs this, hence the new Compact Class – half the width of a classic 19" test cabinet and offering up to 1,536 signal points.

Visit ODU at the Southern Manufacturing and Electronics on 3rd to 5th February 2026 on stand E70 to catch up on some of the new connector developments since its last show.
