Synapse

The synapse series is a small form factor push-on connector designed to withstand dynamic mating conditions while maintaining stable electrical performance. The proprietary design keeps a continuous electrical ground under rotation (twisting), pulling (tensile force) and radial (side) loading. The interface has been tested beyond 10k mating cycles without significant electrical or mechanical degradation.
