Neutrik Announces the etherCON ESD Series

	The new NEUTRIK etherCON ESD series consists of ten connectors, each configured for a variety of termination/usage applications.

Neutrik Americas, part of the Neutrik Group announces the etherCON ESD Series chassis connectors. The etherCON ESD Series improves the performance of the etherCON A Series by including asymmetric compound (non-metallic) push tabs.

The connectors' ESD-protective, compound push tabs protect against damage to sensitive electronics from unwanted energy entering the connector through the latch, whether from a finger touch or other transmission. Furthermore, the asymmetric design saves space for labeling purposes. Equally notable, the push tab is non-reflective due to the black-colored compound material. This not only avoids shiny reflections on the stage but also perfectly matches the flange and housing for a unique and clean appearance. It should also be noted that all NEUTRIK etherCON A series products with the metal push tab will remain available.

The new NEUTRIK etherCON ESD series consists of ten connectors, each configured for a variety of termination/usage applications. These include horizontal and vertical PCB mounting, punch-down, shielded, and halo light ring versions along with versions that include integrated magnetics. All of the connectors fit into NEUTRIK's standard A-size chassis cutouts.

Fred Morgenstern, VP of technology at Neutrik Americas, comments on the new etherCON ESD Series connectors, "These new connectors offer a fresh slant on the A Series connectors that have been an industry standard for many years. The latches look and feel great while providing extra protection to electronics. Their non-reflectivity is an advantage for stage applications where visual distraction should be minimized. And they're priced the same as the standard A Series chassis connectors. Altogether, these ESD series connectors provide a great set of fresh alternatives to product designers."
