Nano-miniature connectors stand up to the elements

Nano-miniature connectors constitute a family of interconnect devices with center-to-center contact spacing of 0.025-in. Compared to other connector families, they are often the smallest practical connector system for separable interfaces and the smaller sibling of micro-miniature "D-style" connectors that have contact spacing of 0.050 in.
