LEMO UK launches OPTIMA D Series

LEMO introduces the OPTIMA D Series, a compact and rugged connector platform engineered for performance in the most demanding environments. Purpose-built for defence, aerospace, and mission-critical systems, the new series combines miniaturized form factors with military-grade reliability.

KEY FEATURES: RUGGED, COMPACT, AND CONFIGURABLE
Engineered to meet the evolving needs of tactical communications, UAVs, avionics, and soldier worn equipment, the OPTIMA D Series offers:
• IP68 sealing (20m/2h) – even when unmated • MIL-STD-810H compliance – resistant to shock, vibration, and extreme environmental stress • Push-Pull and Break-Away latching – for secure, blind mating in high-pressure scenarios • Modular design with robust 5-way keying – to support rapid deployment and error-free connections • Multiple configuration options – including high-speed (USB, Ethernet), multipole, and coaxial

OPTIMISED FOR INTEGRATION
With a compact, overmoulded design that’s 25% shorter than standard LEMO connectors, the OPTIMA D Series enables space-constrained integration without compromising signal integrity or ruggedness. Its uniform PCB height and flush-mounting options streamline system architecture, making it a go-to choice for OEMs developing compact, durable platforms.

END-TO-END CABLE ASSEMBLY SERVICES
To support rapid and secure integration, LEMO offers full cable assembly services:
• Custom overmolding • Complex harness design • Private labelling • Certified production: IPC-620, ISO 9001, AS9100, and MIL-STD-810

AVAILABILITY
The OPTIMA D Series is now available globally directly from LEMO and its network of authorised distributors and partners. Whether for new designs or system upgrades, this next generation solution is ready to meet the demands of today’s most challenging defence, aerospace, and tactical applications.
