ITT Electronic Components is a division of the multi-
national ITT Corporation a $7.5 billion dollar global
enterprise. Our connector portfolio remains the most
e
xtensive in the industry offering the most reliable and
cost effective range of interconnect solutions. These
i
nnovations have enabled ITT to provide products and
technologies to such markets as:
• Aerospace
• Computers Systems
• Defense Electronics
• Geophysical
• Industrial Automation
• Medical Electronics
When you specify a Cannon Rack and Panel connector,
you can rely on a product designed, developed, and
manufactured to the highest quality and reliability
standards in the industry. This tradition of excellence is
based on ITT’s corporate culture of operating its entire
business under the principles of Six Sigma. At ITT, Six
Sigma is not just a quality philosophy but a complete
corporate culture that drives the entire business. Our
Value Based Management and Value Based Product
Development systems are two cornerstones of ITT that
allows for the development of both leadership and
product development principles, ensuring that the cor-
rect industry leading products are developed to the
accepted market driven lead times. These principles
have allowed ITT to become the market leader in all of
our business portfolios.
Six Sigma Manufacturing
ITT operates manufacturing facilities in the United
States, France, Germany, Italy, Mexico, China, and the
UK, all of which have particular product area strengths
allowing ITT to offer a truly global footprint to our
customers. Our facilities are world class and
accommodate full vertical integration with the latest
manufacturing technologies including: automated and
robotic machining centers, Super Market manufacturing
cells, Kanban pull systems, and automated electrical,
mechanical, and optical test and inspection equipment.
The combination of our manufacturing strength and our
advanced manufacturing facilities allows ITT to offer
products at market driven prices. Our capabilities,
especially in robotics, computerized precision tooling,
Kaizen Project Management, Six Sigma tools, and test
l
abs, gives ITT the most optimized global
manufacturing footprint in the interconnect industry.
The Custom Difference
As the industry leader in harsh environment intercon-
nect applications, ITT’s world class engineering teams
will work directly with our customers to design and
develop cost effective solutions for their applications .
In many cases we may modify one of our standard
designs to ensure a highly reliable solution where
timing is critical. Yet, in those cases where a complete
custom interconnect solution is required, ITT will work
with our customer’s Engineers to design an intercon-
nect solution which will be cost effective yet highly
reliable. As professional consultants, our Engineering
teams will provide a thorough systems and mechanical
analysis of any proposed solution. These analyses
provide our customers with sophisticated electrical
signal and mechanical characterizations to determine
the best solution for their application.
RoHS Compliance Information
ITT has implemented a strict parts control plan for all
ITT electronics plants worldwide that allows the Rack
and Panel connector product portfolio to meet the
requirements of European Union Directive 2002/95/EC
better know as the Reduction of Hazardous
Substances initiative. T
o make things easier for our
customers, Rack and Panel products can be ordered
with an R prefix number which insures our
customers will receive RoHS compliant parts for their
commercial electronics applications and equipment.
Since most RoHS hazardous substances center around
specific metal plating and lead solder coatings, ITT's
pr
oducts for RoHS compliance ar
e available in the
following plating finishes: electroless nickel, stainless
steel, Anodize over aluminum and Gold plating. It
should be noted that gold plating would be
recommended as the replacement for tin-lead solder
when ordering board mount connectors.
