Designed for high channel count catheters

VERSIO is a PCB-based medical connector platform designed specifically for minimally invasive device applications, enabling the transmission of electrical power and analog signals for advanced, low-profile catheters.

Up to 208 contact positions are provided in a 1” (2.26 mm) diameter connector, featuring an ergonomic design with shielded secondary signal transmission.
The modular design of VERSIO enables easy configurability for custom applications in electrophysiology mapping & ablation, as well as visualization catheters, including advanced catheters for sensing and data feedback such as ICE (Intracardiac Echocardiography) and IVUS (Intravascular Ultrasound).
