Fischer Connectors

Fischer Connectors is a manufacturer of rugged circular push-pull electrical and fibre optic connectors. Founded in 1954, its headquarters and production centre are based in Switzerland, with subsidiaries located worldwide. In 1972, the company introduced the first push-pull triaxial TV connector series known as 1051, which became the industry standard to connect professional broadcast cameras and control units in studios, outside and location filming. First used by Philips, the Fischer triax connector types have then been globally adopted by many other camera manufacturers. Still in use today, triax connectors and cables can either transmit standard definition (SD) or high definition (HD) video pictures.

Fischer Connectors is also known to have co-developed, in partnership with Corning, the first fibre-based HDTV camera connector, whose technology eliminated the difficult procedures of polishing fibre-optic elements, and of using special epoxies. This enabled broadcasters to maintain and repair their own cable inventories without specialist intervention. With high flexibility of configurations, Fischer connectors are commonly used in high end electronic equipment such as medical apparatus, scientific or instrumentation devices, defence and security systems.
