Axon' Cable was selected to carry out the development of a new, compact impedance-matched SpaceWire (abbreviated herein to “SpW”) connector under an ESA Technology Research Project. The classic existing SpW connector, the 9 way micro-D, whilst having the advantages of being both small and common to many projects, is not electrically optimized to the SpW needs, nor is it particularly efficient when it comes to EMC protection. As high data rate applications are booming, there is, a pressing need to develop an improved connector interface.
