Vertical Farming

Molex Technology in LED lighting is spurring innovative approaches to farming, allowing crops to be grown without direct sunlight in self-contained, environment-controlled, and monitored buildings, also known as vertical farming. Horticulture-specific wavelength LEDs provide the necessary light but are dependent on the most innovative and reliable interconnect products. Molex is a recognized leader in providing sealed and unsealed interconnect solutions, wire and cable assemblies, and thermal management expertise for a range of lighting segments and offers vertical farmers the needed simplicity, flexibility, and innovation.

Molex Brad Connectors

Brad Mini-Change Connectors

Molex Brad Mini-Change Connectors offer highly durable performance with an IP67 protection rating. The moisture-resistant design includes gold over nickel plating to provide a longer-lasting solution. An epoxy-coated coupling nut, a feature offered only in the Molex Brad Mini-Change product line, provides a minimum of 500 hours of corrosion resistance. The Quad Beam™ female contact maintains constant pressure on the mail pin for optimal connectivity and a low-resistance connection. In addition, an anti-vibration feature prevents the coupler from loosening, even under extreme conditions. The Mini-Change product lineup includes H-connectors, which facilitate better organization of cable routing and ease stress on connectors. The H-connectors also reduce requirements for cable lengths in industrial applications needing compact quick-change power connections.

Environmentally Sealed Connectors

Molex Environmentally Sealed Connectors provide an ideal interconnect solution for heavy-duty and harsh-environment applications. Molex offers a wide range of standard-sealed and custom-sealed interconnect systems. These connectors are suitable for applications requiring ruggedized sealed plugs, receptacles, and power connectors, including IP67 or IP68 ratings.
