Built for Soldiers. Designed for Systems. Proven in the Field.

From dismounted soldier technologies and C-UAS platforms to autonomous systems, tactical communications, and vehicle integration, Fischer Connectors delivers rugged connectivity solutions that perform in the harshest operational environments.


FISCHER KEYSTONE™ DATA & POWER HUBS

Reduce soldier burden while simplifying power and data management

The modern soldier carries a network on their body, and it has to keep working through mud, immersion, shock, and the electromagnetic chaos of a contested environment. As the Army scales Next Generation Command and Control (NGC2) toward a single unified data layer, that same principle scales down to the individual warfighter. Fischer Connectors builds the physical foundation that architecture depends on.

 

Our tactical 4- and 6-port data and power hubs are engineered to reduce the physical, cognitive, and logistic burden on dismounted soldiers.

 

Key benefits
  • One battery powers all soldier-worn devices. Less weight, less complexity.
  • Plug-and-play interoperability for EUDs, radios, cameras and more across vendors. No configuration needed – no device-specific integration required.
  • Eliminates bulky wearable computers and redundant processors.
  • Standard cables and connectors for seamless tactical data transfer
  • Simple operation with no training required
  • Powers and connects the full range of digital equipment carried by today’s soldiers
Key features
  • Manages power (100 W – 5 A max) and data (USB 2.0 and SMBus)
  • IP68 2m/24h sealing
  • MIL-SPEC design
  • Meets MIL-STD 810 and 461
  • ATAK plug-in (6-port)
  • USB-C bidirectional power delivery
  • Built to NATO STANAG 4695/4851, Nett Warrior, and GOSSRA-compliant specifications
  • Very compact and lightweight (125 g / 4.2 oz ― 4-port)

 

We’ll have live demos available at booth #2015. Come see how KEYSTONE fits into an NGC2-aligned soldier kit and ask our team your toughest integration questions.

Le hub Fischer KEYSTONE est disponible en versions 4 ou 6 ports, avec un large éventail de câbles radio, EUD, appareils, ainsi que des câbles polyvalents et d’alimentation.

FISCHER ULTIMATE™ SERIES

Ultra-rugged. Compact. Lightweight.

Built for the field, not the lab, Fischer UltiMate® connectors and cable assemblies are built for harsh environments, with rugged sealing and durability that withstand repeated mating, shock, vibration, and environmental exposure. UltiMate 80 offers Nett Warrior-compatible connectors for a proven, drop-in soldier system solution.

 

The UltiMate USB-C connector combines 10 Gb/s USB-C performance with IP68/hermetic sealing, 360° EMI shielding, glove-friendly ratchet coupling, and 3,000 mating cycles.

Key Features
  • Built to withstand shock, vibration and environmental extremes
  • Merges the USB‑C standard with industrial-grade durability
  • IP68/69 sealed mated and unmated, hermetic.
  • Secure connection up to 37.8 Grms (Ratchet locking)
  • Operating temperatures from -55 °C to +135 °C
  • 360° EMC/EMI shielding
  • Up to 10,000 mating cycles 
  • Nett Warrior compatible connectors (UltiMate 80) — proven drop-in solution
  • Tested to IEC, EIA, MIL-STD-202, MIL-STD-810
  • Tool-free, glove-friendly ratchet coupling

FISCHER MINIMAX™ SERIES

More power and signal. Minimal SWaP.

Every gram on a soldier’s body — or a drone’s airframe — competes with mission gear, batteries, sensors, and payload. The Fischer MiniMax series was built around that reality, packing more mixed signal and power connections into a miniaturized footprint that keeps size, weight, and power (SWaP) in check.

 

For teams building the next generation of C-UAS payloads, unmanned soldier systems, and wearable electronics, MiniMax adds reliable data and power connectivity without adding the bulk that has to be carried on a soldier’s kit or in the air.

Key Features
  • Handles more mixed signal and power connections in a smaller footprint
  • High-speed data transfer: USB 3.2 Gen 2, Ethernet, Audio/UHD Video
  • Unique combinations of signal and power
  • 360° EMC shielding by design
  • IP68 sealing to 20m/24h
  • High corrosion resistance (up to 1,000 hours of salt mist)
  • Operating temperatures from -40 °C to +135 °C
  • Blind mating, easy to handle with gloves
  • 5,000 mating cycles
  • Tested to IEC, EIA, MIL-STD-202, MIL-STD-810

BOOTH #2015

AUSA 2026 – Walter E. Washington Convention Center – October 12–14

 

As NGC2 drives the Army toward a more connected, data-centric force, the physical layer matters as much as the software. Fischer Connectors has spent decades solving that problem at the connector level, one soldier-worn device at a time.

 

Stop by booth #2015 for live demonstrations of the KEYSTONE tactical hub, UltiMate 80, the ruggedized USB-C connector, and the MiniMax series. Our defense specialists are on hand to walk through configurations, cable assemblies, and integration options for your specific application.
