Fischer Connectors: Making Connections for the Future Soldier
Headquartered in Saint-Prex, Switzerland, Fischer Connectors is a premiere provider of push-pull circular connectors and cable assemblies. Established in 1954, Fischer’s extensive, 60-year history in the electronics field includes creating the world’s first hermetic connector in 1965. Certified to the standards of ISO 9001, ISO 13485, ISO 14001, ROHS, and REACH, Fischer Connectors is engineered to withstand harsh operational conditions-be it high humidity, g-force, rain, vibration, temperature, salt or shock.
Fischer Connectors is a key supplier to a number of global Future Soldier Programs-a multinational undertaking by the United States and its allies to produce the most technologically advanced ground forces. The modern era’s network-centric and data-intensive battlefields require lightweight, reliable, and rugged connector configurations for use on uniforms, armed vehicles and other land-based platforms. The following Fischer product lines are built to withstand the pounding of a battle environment:
- Fischer UltiMate
- Fischer Rugged Flash Drive
- Fischer Core Series
- Fischer MiniMax Series
- Fischer FiberOptic Series
- SCORP Robot: Swiss firm Novatiq designed SCORP--a Micro Unmanned Ground Vehicle (MUGV)—for military reconnaissance purposes. The SCORP is throwaway robot meant to fit into a soldier’s backpack and thrown into buildings or onto rough terrain. As such, SCORP is integrated with Fischer’s connectors which offer robust performance in punishing environments.
- Scorpion Rugged Battle Management (RBM) notebook computer: Integrated with the Fischer Core Series family of connectors, the Scorpion computer from Florida-based DRS Tactical Systems is specifically designed to meet the demanding MIL-STD-461E (EMI) and MIL-STD 810E (Environmental) requirements a warzone calls for.
