The engineers at Fischer Connectors have always had a bit of a competitive spirit, no matter whom the customer or end user turns out to be.\u00a0 In the case of the American Magic, we are putting our competitive spirit to use for a team that competes at the top of their game in one of the most highly-engineered sports on the planet: New York Yacht Club American Magic, a Challenger for the 36th America\u2019s Cup.<\/p>\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n\nstring(0) “”\nNULL\nNULL\nstring(1) “0”\n

The America\u2019s Cup is the oldest event in international sports, and the highest prize in sailing. Fischer Connectors is proud to be an official supplier and the exclusive connectivity sponsor for connectors and connectivity solutions<\/strong> for the American Magic.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

American Magic built a 75 foot high-performance monohull to compete in this prestigious event. Many of the design elements of the yacht itself are standard. This leads teams to look for and create innovative approaches to control and connectivity solutions required for racing.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n\n

If you\u2019ve never seen an America\u2019s Cup yacht \u2013 and most of us haven\u2019t \u2013 you might be amazed at the electronics that are on board and on shore.\u00a0 Computers, sensors and communications devices help teams achieve top speeds while flying through the air just above the water\u2019s surface. Accuracy is calculated down to the nth degree, and communications devices give real time updates to the teams on the yacht and on shore.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n\n

The America\u2019s Cup races are very competitive, and therefore, very secretive. The yachts have specific dimensions and even standard parts. The electronics can be the place where a competitive edge is gained. Engineers look for light devices and secure connectivity for both signal and power. We don\u2019t want the other teams to know what\u2019s going on for specific applications and solutions because of the confidential nature of the designs. What we can tell you is that our Fischer FiberOptic Series solutions and our Fisher MiniMax\u2122 Series solutions were racing through the air and waters on American Magic yachts.\u00a0<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Fischer Connectors\u2019 solutions were chosen because of their rugged design that can hold up under extreme conditions, such as salt spray in a high-vibration environment.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n\n
