The development of the Fischer LP360 TM connector , the first product in the brand-new Fischer Freedom TM Series , has introduced a new approach to connectivity , and innovative engineering and technology in mating , in locking and in materials .

Threefold usability

The new Fischer Freedom TM Series and the Fischer LP360 TM set a new standard in usability , which is threefold .

The new product line makes end users ’ lives easier by reducing cognitive , weight and reliability burdens thanks to :

1 . Easy mating . Mating the Fischer LP360 TM becomes as intuitive as buttoning up a vest – without compromising on the highperformance reliability required in harsh environments .

2 . Easy cleaning . The new connector is fully cleanable ( both plug and receptacle ), and is easy to use and maintain with a faster set up and improved durability .

The Fischer Freedom TM Series also makes the life of design engineers easier , as it meets their need to easily and seamlessly integrate connectors – with or without cables – into multifunctional portable or body-worn devices .

3 . Easy integration . Thanks to its compact and low-profile design , the Fischer LP360 TM is easy to integrate into clothing with devices and subsystems ; via the panel-mounted plug interface , cables can even be removed completely , and the connector can be directly integrated into the housing of such devices as a camera , a sensor , a light , a GPS .
