ISE 2026: The Major Showcase for the Professional Audiovisual Industry

ISE (Integrated Systems Europe) is the leading international trade show for the AV, broadcast, system integration, and live events sectors. Every year, it brings together manufacturers, engineering firms, integrators, and specialized technicians seeking reliable solutions for increasingly complex environments.

 

At ISE 2026, the focus will be on:

• Large-scale AV installations

• Live productions and large-scale concerts

• Permanent audiovisual infrastructures

• Robust solutions for critical environments

And across all of them, AV connectors play a fundamental role.

When we think of global connectivity, the first things that come to mind are Wi-Fi, satellites, or mobile coverage. However, the reality is quite different: 97% of global communications travel through subsea cables. These cables, which cross oceans connecting continents, rely on critical components such as subsea connectors to ensure their proper operation.

What is a subsea connector and why is it so important? 

A subsea connector is a device designed to ensure the transmission of signal, power, or data in oceanic environments. Its role is crucial in telecommunications networks, offshore installations, defense systems, scientific research, salvage operations, and much more.

Connectors also play a fundamental role in the use of Underwater Robotics for all types of subsea operations — station repairs, equipment welding, and underwater blasting, among others.

In order for these connectors to function properly thousands of meters below sea level, they must withstand extreme conditions, including:

• Pressure of up to 600 atmospheres (equivalent to 6,000 meters depth)

• Corrosion caused by saltwater

• Constant low temperatures

• Natural threats such as tsunamis, as well as the presence of marine life or sabotage risks

Only a handful of certified subsea connector manufacturers possess the technical capabilities and experience required to meet these challenges.

ALFA’R: New Certification for Extreme Environments

At ALFA’R, we’ve spent over 60 years developing industrial connectivity solutions, and we’ve applied all that know-how to a specialized line of certified subsea connectors, designed to withstand the most demanding marine conditions.

Our connectors:

• Tested and certified by the National Oceanographic Center (NOC) in Southampton (UK)

• Capable of operating at depths of up to 6,000 meters

• Custom-built, allowing the integration of signal, power, and fiber optics according to client requirements

• Made with high-strength materials to ensure durability, watertightness, and reliability

Thanks to their modular and customizable design, they can be applied in:

• Subsea communication systems

• Offshore energy (wind and gas)

• Oceanographic research

• Naval defense and security

Why choose a certified manufacturer?

Choosing certified subsea connectors ensures:

• Operational safety in hostile environments

• Technical compatibility with next-generation equipment

• Long-term durability, reducing failures and maintenance costs

• Regulatory compliance for international projects

In contrast, using uncertified copies or low-quality connectors can compromise an entire critical infrastructure.

ALFA’R: Your Technology Partner for Connectivity in Harsh Conditions

We connect more than just cables. At ALFA’R, we develop tailor-made engineering solutions for sectors where there is no margin for error.
If you’re looking for a certified subsea connector manufacturer, get in touch — we’ll be happy to help take your project to the depths.

In the 90’s, came the consolidation of coaxial with new series, power as 7/16 or microaxial for microwave and other devices. With the emergence of private television, we were one of the developers and promoters of its expansion in Spain.
In the second part of the 1990’s, ALFA’R actively participated in the deployment of GSM repeater stations, supplying the main mobile telephone operators and the cellular antenna manufacturers with the new technology. From the 2000’s onwards, the company modernized along the same global line of evolution.

The means of production, quality policies, security and internationalization have changed over the years, and at ALFA’R we adapt to all these changes. It was also at this time, when we participated in the definitive expansion of private TV in Spain and, at the end of the decade, also in the deployment of the famous “DTT”, supplying connectors and wiring to the main operators.

Subsequently, around 2010, we strengthened the RF-coaxial connectors division, introducing a new product and started the Multicontact connectors division, a pending issue that substantially expanded our connectivity offer.

Nowadays, our company continues to reinforce the connectivity offer of Multicontact connectors in the industrial and control electronics sector. Right now, more than 85% of our work lies in the design and development of this type of connectors in a customized way. Throughout these years, we can be proud to design, manufacture and distribute our own high-quality connectors for all our customers.

These are the pillars that have led us to success and on which we base our daily work to maintain your trust:

• We are passionate about our work, and we believe in it
• The highest quality in our products is essential.
• We demand ourselves to reach the maximum possible.
• We customize our products to be able to offer what our customers need at all times.
• It is difficult for the customer not to find with us his connection need resolved.

Our philosophy has been, is, and always will be the commitment to provide the best connectivity solution for you. We are at your service!

It is a singular opportunity for companies and professionals to share ideas and innovations in the scope of Smart Cities. During the exhibition, organizers proposed formative sessions, workshops, conferences, and expositions about last information and communication tech trends, among others.

One of the main issues focussed at Smart City Expo is the necessity and typology of industrial connectors and their implementation in the systems of smart cities. ALFA’R’s high-speed industrial connectors allow the connection of different electrical and electronic devices in a work area, so data moves at high speed, safely and efficiently between them. With this technology latency times are very short, enabling effective responses in real-time.

This technology is the key to Connected Cities implementation, achieving the interconnection and integration of data from different systems and devices in a network. Also allows the creation of monitoring solutions and data analytics of cities, which facilitates decision-making and improve the management at municipal level. Solutions for urban traffic, control of bus fleets, subways, municipal cleaning services, waste collection, flows of people, etc.

At the Smart City Expo fair, the latest trends in industrial connectivity have been discussed, as well as the challenges and opportunities that smart cities must overcome to take full advantage of the benefits of technology. Besides, an analysis of the tools and solutions currently available for the use of these connectors has also been carried out.

Definitely, Smart City Expo was a new opportunity for the experts and companies interested in going forward about the benefits of
industrial connectors and how to integrate them into Smart Cities necessities. It was a great event to discover the last trends and innovations in this industry, as well as to know the challenges that we face in ALFA’R to obtain effective solutions in the optimal management of our needs in the cities, minimize resources, and increase benefits and services. Making all this an easier and more sustainable life, using all the technology that we have within our reach.
