It is now available in it's fourth reprint and used by over 100,000 product design engineers worldwide.

As the Applications Engineering Manager for PEI-Genesis a worldwide distributor and assembler of ITT Cannon connectors, Kent Carlson was in charge of finding answers that went beyond what was available in standard connector catalogs. Carlson remembers, "My customers were finding it time consuming to review all the information out there. They also found holes in the consistency of the specifications." "Today," says Carlson, "my customers use the ITT Cannon Solutions Guide to quickly compare and select from 20 circular connectors series, and find information on accessories that fit their application." According to Carlson, "since the connector information is presented in a clear and concise manner that is easy to navigate, the OEM product designer can focus on the design of their product, without having to become a connector expert."

According to Mark Baptista, Internal Application Engineer Manager for PEI-Genesis, "information that is provided in the solutions guide for ITT Cannon Connectors includes how to assemble and mount the circular connectors. Customers have told me they looked all over the Internet and couldn't find that information." Baptista observes, "Same with finding series of the correct assembly tools to crimp contacts. As far as I know this information is not available in the ITT Cannon Catalogs nor anywhere else."

According to Kent Carlson, "A popular section is the side-by-side comparison of the 20 series of ITT Cannon connectors. Basically you're reviewing the specifications usually found across 20 ITT Cannon catalogs in just one spread." "In addition, the consistency and logic of each connector series section, makes it easy to select both power and data connectors. And, a pictorial part number selection chart, visually demonstrates step-by-step what you are specifying", confirms Carlson. "Offering information not found anywhere else, this 288 page guide has become the "bible" of the connector industry," he states proudly.
