The fast speeds needed for today's data systems can be achieved with the new Plateau HS Mezz high-speed mezzanine connector line from Molex. The company says that its advanced plastic plating technology enables this mezzanine connector to support differential data rates in excess of 10 Gbps. The innovative plated plastic housing provides full shielding of each pair of differential contacts. These mezzanine connectors are ideal for servers; main frame computers; work stations; test equipment; and telecommunication equipment such as routers.
Designed for stack heights from 9 mm through 25 mm, the Plateau HS Mezz connector system features SMT differential pairs of contacts at 1,20 mm pitch with pairs at 3,50 mm pitch. There are two points of contact on each signal interface for high reliability. Moulded plated pegs on the housing facilitate attachment to the PCB ground plane.
