New Cables from TE Connectivity
TE Connectivity announced Tuesday it has launched its portfolio of flexible, abrasion-resistant Raychem CANbus (Controller Area Network) high-speed copper cables, offering a ruggedized means of transmitting data at speeds up to 1 Mb/s for harsh environment applications.The high performance 120Ω twisted pair cables are available in constructions that meet SAE J1939 and SAE J1939-11 and -15 requirements. Operating temperatures range from minus 65°C to 200°C (depending on construction).“In addition to designing a cable that is easier to terminate, compared to tape-wrap designs, we offer

“advanced” electronics packages. The standard package uses RS-422 serial communications for control and composite (NTSC / PAL) video. The advanced package uses a tiny, on-board computer (Raspberry Pi), and other electronics to send both HD video and ROV control via Ethernet and a single twisted pair. The standard electronics is similar to how most commercial ROVs are configured. The advanced electronics is something new, offering some exciting new capabilities along with a few additional risks. For this evaluation I built two kits, one with standard electronics and one with the advanced electronic

the ‘guts’ of the vehicle and aids in the integration of 3rd party tools and sensors. The result is the ability to easily assemble a customized underwater system. In addition to customer specified systems, The company currently offers seven standard ROV SEAMOR versions; three with “twisted pair” tether, three with “fiber-optic” tether and one with combined “twisted pairs”/“fiber-optic” tether. The 300F-1080p-HD model incorporates a High Definition primary video camera. All standard systems are depth rated to 1000 ft./300m and feature 150w thrusters

, the MA500 may be used in a wide range of harsh environment altitude measuring applications such as assisting the safe navigation of subsea vehicles, deployment of structures to the seabed and the monitoring and measurement of sediment and ice. Up to 16 Altimeters may be connected on a single twisted pair to enable the deployment of large seabed structures and multi point monitoring of large areas of interest and hazardous environments. Up to three MA500s can be controlled via operator display interface, with each individual altimeter’s output color coded for easy and accurate viewing
