From high power connectors to the latest sensors and high bandwidth antennas, TE’s IoT portfolio will help you make all the connections you need on your way to a smarter, safer, more connected home.
With all the buzz around smart homes and the Internet of Things, it’s easy to get lost in the cloud and forget about all the physical components you need to actually get connected. Luckily, TE Connectivity has the building blocks you need to make your home smarter, safer, and more connected than ever before.
Before you can do anything with the cloud, you need a reliable wired internet connection. Unfortunately, lightening and other electrical disruptions can enter your house on the same wires as the internet. To stop those surges from entering the door, implement the high surge tolerant relays from TE’s IM family. They can switch up to 60W at standard AC voltages but only require a footprint of 10x6mm, so they’ll blend right into your circuit board décor.
Once safely inside, it’s time to go wireless with TE’s collection of antennas. Whether you want to talk Wi-Fi, ZigBee, Bluetooth, or something else entirely, this wide portfolio will have something to help you get your message out as well as get data in.
That data could be coming from any one of TE’s new sensor products, like an integrated digital pressure sensor, a barometric pressure sensor, or a combination sensor that tells you pressure, humidity and temperature all from a 5x3mm QFN package.
If you do have data collectors outside keeping an eye on Mother Nature, be sure you have the connectors to match. USB Type-C products are already innovative in that you will never have to plug the cord in upside down again, but TE ups the appeal with the splash-proof surface mount USB Type-C connector that is ready to weather the storm.
For all your other interconnect needs, check out TE’s economy power connector portfolio. These connectors offer a true locking latch and optional terminal position assurance (TPA) for better mechanical and electrical reliability, so you don’t have to worry about breaking any connections or the bank. If you need something more rugged, TE’s POWER TRIPLE LOCK connectors just may be what you need. These highly reliable systems feature three unique design aspects to lock the connections. They carry up to 20A, while snagless design features help assure fast and accurate assembly. With multiple keying and color options, these connectors are offered in up to 15 positions allowing you to find exactly what you need to keep your connections on lock.
