PCIe® Gen 6 Mini Cool Edge 0.60mm Card Edge Connectors
Mini Cool Edge is a 0.60mm high-density, high-speed card edge connector for new-generation small form factor systems. This fine-pitch solution offers multiple BTB applications like right-angle, mezzanine, and coplanar connectors. Cable options are available for a complete interconnect solution.
PCIe® Gen 6 Mini Cool Edge IO Connector
Amphenol introduces the next-generation OverPass™ solution - Mini Cool Edge IO. The 0.60mm pitch connector comes with a slim form factor design, capable of transmitting high-speed signals up to 64G PAM4/PCIe® Gen 6 and allowing much greater signal path lengths while maintaining SI performance when compared to conventional PCB routing methods.
PCIe® Gen 7 Mini Cool Edge IO Connector
Amphenol introduces the next-generation OverPass™ solution: the Mini Cool Edge IO. This connector features a 0.60mm pitch and a slim form factor design, and is capable of transmitting high-speed signals of up to 128G PAM4/PCIe® Gen 7. It allows for significantly longer signal path lengths while maintaining superior signal integrity (SI) performance compared to traditional PCB routing methods.

PCI Express® DirectAttached™ CEM Card Edge Connectors
Amphenol's 1.0mm pitch DirectAttached™ CEM (DA CEM) is a hybrid card edge solution with high-speed signal pins designed to directly attach to the cable to eliminate PCB trace loss and press-fit termination type power pins for better rework. Amphenol has tooled Gen 5 DA CEM with configurations available for X8 and X16, at 32GT/s data rate to meet PCIe® Gen 5.
PCI Express® Flip CEM Card Edge Connectors
The PCIe® Gen 5 Flip CEM is a new 1.0mm pitch vertical card edge connector that follows PCIe® standard mating interface. It is designed with a different footprint because the contacts are “JJ” type or “LL” contacts which provide maximum savings of up to 19.5% in keepout area. The current Flip CEM supports 32GT/s (Gen 5) and the mating side supports backward compatibility with PCIe® 4/3/2/1 card.
PCI Express® Gen 3 Card Edge Connectors
Amphenol's 1.00mm pitch, vertical card edge connectors enable PCI Express® (PCIe®) signaling from 2.5Gb/s (Gen 1) and 5Gb/s (Gen 2) up to 8Gb/s (Gen 3) per differential signal pair. A modular design of these connectors allows standard pin counts like 36, 64, 98, 164, and 280.
