Connector solutions for security applications
BERNIER Connect designs and manufactures ruggedized connectors for security applications — from law enforcement and critical infrastructure protection to private security operations. Primarily built in stainless steel, with the NWA NetWarrior series in aluminum for personnel carrying lightweight portable equipment, our connectors are validated in operational field conditions.
Compact, ruggedized connectors for security equipment
BERNIER connectors — CMA, CMASD, CMA-USBC, CMALD, MMC, MMCSD, MMCMD, NWA, PAM, 55116, B600, 221 — are designed for security systems where size, robustness, and connection reliability must all be maintained under operational stress. Their stainless steel construction delivers strong resistance to corrosion, mechanical shock, and repeated use in harsh environments. Waterproof to IP68, they perform in all weather and field conditions.
High-speed data transmission is supported via USB 3.2 Gen2 technology, enabling fast and reliable data exchange between connected systems.
Designed for use in operational conditions
Security operations impose specific handling constraints: connectors must be operable quickly and reliably, even when users are wearing gloves, protective equipment, or working in low-visibility conditions. BERNIER Connect connectors are compact, intuitive to connect and disconnect, and built to withstand the repeated mating cycles of intensive field use — including systems that require interoperability with existing platforms and equipment.
Custom connector solutions for security programs
Security programs often require connectors that can interface with existing systems while meeting new operational requirements. BERNIER Connect works alongside equipment manufacturers and system integrators to develop tailored solutions — adapted form factors, specific contact configurations, connector interface compatibility — while maintaining the robustness and compactness that security applications demand.
Applications in security
BERNIER Connect connectors are integrated across a wide range of security systems and equipment:
- Software-defined radio (SDR) systems and tactical communication
