Rosenberger Proximity Connector (RoProxCon) - System-on-Module
 

RoProxCon® - Contactless Data and Power Transmission

 

RoProxCon® stands for contactless data and power transmission. The handling is largely based on the classic connector and can be integrated into the applications like one - but on the basis of radio transmission.

Rosenberger offers a wide range of solutions tailored to customer requirements:

  • RoProxCon® - System-on-Module (SoM)
  • RoProxCon® - Hybrid
  • RoProxCon® - Data

 

 


 

RoProxCon® - System-on-Module (SoM)
The System-on-Module (SoM) from Rosenberger is a preconfigured transmission module. This stand-alone product is used for direct PCB mounting on the customer's electronics. Rosenberger supports the integration in the respective customer application. Ethernet-based transmissions can be easily implemented using suitable adaptor circuits. In addition, proprietary IO signals or fieldbuses can be utilized. A Design-in Service for the System-on-Module can be offered as well, if required.
