Transportation

The most common connectors used in transportation
applications are Card-Edge, Rectangular, USB and HDMI. Card Edge connectors
continue to be used in the transportation market. In conformance with
“MIL-STD-202, Method 204”, these are utilized in backplanes with PC boards in
traffic control equipment to provide various functions such as traffic lights,
security camera feeds, etc. Rectangular rack & panel connectors are used
when high shock and vibration resistance is required such as in train rail
signaling equipment. USB connectors are commonly used in traffic camera
applications as a power source providing data feedback to the control monitor. HDMI
connectors transfer video signals from a traffic camera back to the control
monitor displaying traffic activity.
