AirMax VS2® High-Speed Backplane Connector
AirMax VS2® connectors provide a migration path from AirMax VS® for speeds up to 20Gb/s, providing a margin of safety for typical 802.3ap system performance with the flexibility of an open pin field design. The connectors leverage AirMax VS® and VSe® design features and technology to achieve improved signal integrity and mechanical attributes compared to AirMax VS® connectors.
AirMax VSe® High-Speed Backplane Connector
Next-generation AirMax VSe® connectors provide a migration path for up to 25Gb/s per differential pair with the flexibility of an open pin field design. The connectors also feature backward mating-compatible interfaces to existing AirMax VS® connectors with minimal changes to connector footprints.
AirMax VS® Orthogonal High-Speed Backplane Connector
AirMax VS® Orthogonal mid-plane interface features two back-to-back AirMax VS® headers oriented at 90 degrees to each other. The headers connect 16 differential signal pairs through shared vias in the mid-plane, providing a direct, high-speed connection while eliminating traces on the mid-plane. The AirMax VS® Orthogonal mid-plane interconnects can support differential signaling at up to 20Gb/s.
AirMax VS® SBB High-Speed Backplane Connector
AirMax VS® high-speed signal connectors, guide modules, and power connectors meet the dimensional and electrical requirements for the Storage Bridge Bay Mid-plane Interface (SBBMI) to connect bridge/controller cards to the mid-plane in a drive enclosure. It comes with high-speed serial data rates that can scale from 2.5Gb/s to 12.5Gb/s without requiring the redesign of a basic platform.
Amphe-309 Pin and Sleeve
Pin & Sleeve IEC 60309 UL listed. The Amphe-309 consists of both IP44 (splash-proof) and IP67 (Water Proof) devices from 16 A up to 125 A, from a simple plug to customer-specified combination units. The series range covers all clock positions in use for low profile, watertight, and Heavy Duty solutions. EC 603 09-1 & 2, EN 60 309-1 & 2, BS 4343-2 1992, and UL 1682 & 1686.
Amphe-PD™
This series, utilizing RADSOK® socket contact technology, is a general duty, touch-proof, thermoplastic rectangular with integrated latch push-pull coupling high power connector. Two poles per connector and up to 120 amps possible with a standard operating temperature from -55°C to +125°C.
Amphe-PRB
This series, utilizing RADSOK® socket contact technology, is an IP67 rated, thermoplastic reverse bayonet coupling, high power connector. With over six insert arrangements ranging from 3 to 5 contacts per connector and up to 70 amps possible with a standard operating temperature from -40°C to +100°C.
APC 8010
The APC 8010 is the perfect machine for every fiber optic production. High reproducibility with all connector geometries ensures high productivity during production. This is made possible by a permanent pressure control, which is adjusted to the connector type and quantity.
Aptera™
The Aptera™ connector meets difficult electronic packaging challenges with a high-speed interconnect designed specifically for space-constrained areas without impeding airflow. Aptera's™ pin assignments are not predetermined, providing more flexibility when it comes to PCB routing design. It features low crosstalk that supports 6.25Gb/s data rates.
BarKlip® BK100 I/O
BarKlip® BK100 I/O provides a convenient method of distributing up to 100A between busbars, cables and circuit boards. It features 12 fully independent cantilevered beams, providing a true compliant spring to adjust for variations in busbar alignment and surface finish. The ultrasonically welded connection between the wire and contact increases the efficiency and reliability of current transition.
