Industrial and Drones

Connectors that are compact, durable, stably connected, and capable of high-speed transmission are essential for the high-precision cameras, GPS and other navigation systems, and various sensors used in drones.

KEL produces connectors for the cutting-edge drone market. In addition to a wide range of compact connectors, we have many years of experience in ultra-compact connectors, enabling high-speed transmission characteristics and providing stable connections for car navigation systems.


Camera for Drones

Cameras for Drones

Small cameras for drones need to be able to support high-resolution images while at the same time making the aircraft smaller.

KEL’s micro coaxial cables are highly flexible and can support high-speed transmission characteristics while keeping the connector part ultra-compact to achieve high image quality.

GPS Modules, Navigation Systems, Sensors

GPS Modules, Navigation Systems, Sensors

With each new generation, drones become smaller while incorporating more sensors and instruments, making their boards increasingly densely populated with components.

KEL’s micro coaxial cable connectors use hair-thin cables that can be freely routed inside a drone’s small chassis. If our floating connectors are used, the floating mechanism absorbs mounting tolerances and can withstand shocks such as dropping.


Standard Products

  • 8822E / 8822 series

    8822E / 8822 series

    1.27mm pitch connector / 1.27mm pitch flat cable compatible

    The 8822E/8822 series are 1.27mm pitch printed circuit board-to-cable connectors. Compatible with AWG#28 flat cable.

  • DT-E-FS Series

    DT-E-FS Series

    high speed transmission compatible 0.5mm pitch floating connector/ high stack type with power terminal (receptacle 10mm bottom raised type)

    DT-E-FS is a board-to-floating connector with a printed circuit board printed circuit board that has a 0.5mm pitch with the stack height of receptacle raised by 10mm, and is capable of high speed serial transmission equivalent to 8Gbps. By combining with a plug with a stack height of 20 mm, a maximum stack height of 30 mm is possible.
