PARIS--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Radiall SA and Cinch Connectors announced today at the Paris Air Show that they have entered into a cross licensing agreement covering their respective technologies for the EPX® connector range and EBOSA® fibre optic termini.
EBOSA® expanded beam is a market leading fiber optic technology for harsh environments. Radiall's EPX® connector range is the industry leading rectangular connector series with major applications in commercial aviation (EN4644 standard) and widely used on the latest generation aircraft.
