Jobs introduced the MacBook Air in January 2008, a very compact product that was touted as the thinnest laptop on the market. Apple's MacBook Air series has achieved very good results in the past few years, but the news we are hearing now is that this series of products will soon come to an end. According to reports of foreign media BGR, when asked if Apple would launch the new MacBook Air in 2017, an insider from Foxconn bluntly responded: “This product line has been discontinued.â€
It is worth noting that this is not the first time we have seen news about the suspension of the MacBook Air, after analyst Jack March made the same prediction.
The analyst once said: "I think that at this point, Apple will never launch a new product with the Air brand." For Apple, to get the title of the world's thinnest notebook, they You have to compromise on the product's performance and expansion slots.
Not only that, the MacBook Air is a very niche and expensive product that only targets users who prioritize device portability. In 2016, almost all of Apple's competitors (even Apple) had very thin products. In this case, Air was a bit redundant.
Now, Apple may consider the MacBook Air as a cheap entry-level device, but it does not seem to be updated. In fact, over the past two years or so, we haven’t seen any real MacBook Air upgrades.
Of course, anyway, we will get more information at tomorrow morning's WWDC Developer Conference to better understand Apple's ideas in the notebook product line.
SMC connectors
compact and reliable with high signal integrity
SMC connectors (Small Multiple Connector) have a grid of 1.27 millimeters and are available with pin counts of 12 to 80. Reliable and compact connections can be made with them. Various shapes, such as straight or angled male and female terminal strips, enable different mating configurations. The combination of different height male and female terminal strips results in diverse board-to-board spacing. The SMC connector also supports wire-to-board solutions.

SMC connectors for many applications
The SMC connectors offer ideal solutions everywhere small grid and high performance are required. The outstanding signal integrity and a relatively high current rating include an enormous variety of application possibilities.
Since SMC connectors work reliably under adverse conditions and are very robust, they are especially suitable for instrumentation and industrial applications. Areas of application of these safe, outstandingly processed elements are factory and process automation, industrial robots, switches or PLC controls and modular control systems for communication between controller and I/O modules use.
Other application possibilities are:
medical technology
automotive
rail technology
electromobility
instrumentation
access and control systems
