EKO A - Power to Car-to-Car Connectors

EKO A Series is dedicated for all main rolling stock power systems applications and specially designed for inter-vehicle Power Dynamic applications.

A field proven solution from light regional trains to very high speed trains, EKO A Series is specifically designed for dynamic inter-vehicle jumper applications. Modular system of frame permits to customise 100% of the connector to the train design. The EKO A family has modular solutions from 2 to 6 connection modules for cable sizes up 300mm2 for 3000 volt applications. EKO family is completed by EKO (composite), EKO S (shielding & high resistance for mechanical constraints) and EKO D (derivation). See the respective pages for more details.
