Nice article from our partner EDAC Connectors about Connectors used in Medical Equipment.
Connectors used within medical equipment are often subject to stringent medical standards. This is particularly the case when the connector is directly connected to a patient or managed by medical personnel. While there are some application-specific connectors (e.g., a connector that mates to ultrasound equipment from the probe), the medical industry also makes use of connectors that are ubiquitously used in most electronic equipment. This includes wire-to-wire (in-line), wire-to-board (in-line, header), board-to-board (header, card edge) connectors, and other conventional connectors such as D-subs or HDMI. These connectors may need to be ruggedized against vibrations and mechanical shock from handling (e.g., drops, crush) and will likely need to be both dust and watertight to mitigate the risk of failure from exposure to fluids and chemicals. EDAC offers a massive range of connectors for medical applications that meet these requirements.
