High-speed connector now has more features

7 March 2007 Interconnection AI & Data Analytics

Samtec’s Q2 second-generation high-speed connector system (QMS/QFS Series) options have been expanded with integrated power pins (PC Option), RF connectors (RF option), and retention pins (RT option) for increased un-mating force.

The Q2 Series has positive alignment features, edge-mount and right-angle design variations, single-ended and differential signal routing, and optional EMI shielding.

This micro-rugged, high-speed system has a 10 mm or 11 mm mated height and signal pins on 0,635 mm pitch. It is available with up to 156 I/Os per connector set in single-ended configuration and up to 64 pairs in a differential pair configuration. The retention pin option can as much as double the un-mating forces in typical applications up to 100 cycles, says Samtec. Power pins can carry as much as 4,1 A at 80°C. The RF option features MCX-scale RF plugs and sockets integrated into the connector.
