QLINK
QPC’s QLink Connector line is a versatile interconnect platform designed for harsh environments. The product line includes ten standard shell sizes in two materials, three different coupling mechanisms, and options for traditional pin and socket plugs and receptacles as well as hermaphroditic configurations to allow daisy chaining of multiple plug assemblies.The hermaphroditic plugs can be equipped with an optional coupling ring locking feature that allows easier demating of high channel count plugs. Using either molded boots or wire mesh cable grips, QLink Connectors can accommodate a wide range of cable diameters as well as a variety of tubing, monocoil, and conduit.
QLink Connectors feature an innovative insert design that allows the different connector types for each shell size to use the same insert blanks, greatly reducing manufacturing lead times. QLink inserts are made of Ultem 1000, a high strength composite with excellent dielectric properties, and they can accommodate any combination of fiber optic termini and copper contacts. Because the termini / contacts are self-retaining, they can go anywhere on the insert. QPC stocks the QLink Connector shells, blank inserts, and strain relief components, so making a custom connector is as easy as defining the insert layout, machining the cavities, and packaging it in the preferred connector body. This enables QPC to deliver application specific connectors in weeks not months.
