SCHAFFHAUSEN, Switzerland - August 27, 2014 - At InnoTrans 2014 in Berlin, TE Connectivity (TE), a world leader in connectivity, will be highlighting its latest application-focused solutions for the railway industry, including contactless connectors - a revolution in connectivity.

From September 23 - 26, visitors to Booth #222 Hall 10.1 are invited to see how TE’s decades of experience in the rail industry can help customers achieve greater efficiency and reliability in train and trackside applications, both today and in the future. A highlight at the booth is the preview of its innovative “contactless connectivity” solution, smart connectivity which allows more freedom in design and brings new benefits for the railway industry.

Helping customers meet regulatory requirements, TE has added a number of new powerful wire and cable products to its already broad EN45545 compliant product range, which will be on display at InnoTrans 2014. See those products and more, including:
