Military
Military equipment often performs mission-critical roles. In applications ranging from naval vessels and fighter jets to missiles and field weapons, connectors must work properly every single time, even under the most extreme conditions.
Our 40 years of experience as pioneers of high-voltage connectors gives us the expertise to ensure that our interconnects meet or exceed the highest standards. We have created interconnect solutions for the armed forces and for military contractors such as Raytheon, Lockheed Martin, and Honeywell. We understand the military development process and can rapidly prototype new equipment.
Drawing on our experience, our research and design team continues to develop new technology to meet modern demands. Newer application often require low-voltage solutions that transmit a variety of electrical signals. Our cables and interconnects use shielding that prevents outside interference from disrupting the data flow. We continue to produce ground-breaking connectors that meet the demanding needs of today’s military.
Hybrid connectors
Cable management is an increasingly important aspects of device design. Hybrid connectors simplify connections by eliminating the need for multiple cables and reducing the device footprint. Reducing the number of cables and connectors from device-to-end user or device-to-device decreases cost, cuts cost, reduces risks of entanglement, cable stresses and disconnection, and reduces end user time. Hybrid connectors can also make it easier for device users to ensure that a mating pair is properly engaged in one simple action rather then having to check multiple connections.
CABLE ASSEMBLY MANUFACTURING
At Caton, cable assembly manufacturing is our stock-in-trade. Whether designing and manufacturing a brand new interconnect and cable assembly, modifying Caton’s standard connectors, or integrating third-party components, Caton can manufacture custom cable assemblies in high or low volumes efficiently.Caton’s primary manufacturing facility in Kingston, Massachusetts can be modified for manufacturing at any scale. To keep manufacturing costs down our products are designed with efficiency in mind. While automation and lean processes are employed to keep manufacturing costs low, a great deal of our value comes from applying our decades of experience to specifying materials and processes that achieve high quality results at the lowest cost.
