Connectors
Amphenol has been designing and manufacturing electrical and electronic connectors since the company’s inception in 1932. For nearly a century, we’ve been helping customers transmit power, data and signal in the harshest environments, from subsea applications to the outer reaches of space and everywhere in between. Our wide array of electrical and electronic connectors come in multiple form factors and are designed to meet the latest market needs including high power, high speeds, size and weight reduction, EMI shielding, hermeticity, high pressure and improved board retention. Amphenol also offers a broad portfolio of contact styles, termination types, mating styles, connector geometries and environmentally-friendly RoHS plating.

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.
PCI Express® Gen 4 and Gen 5 Card Edge Connectors
PCIe® Gen 4 and Gen 5 connectors outperform industry-standard PCIe® 4.0 and 5.0 (Proposed) requiring higher speed performance. The optimized series supports backward mating and is footprint compatible with PCIe 3/2/1. Amphenol's expansive range of vertical PCIe® Gen 4 and Gen 5 connectors will include options for SMT, through-hole solder, press-fit (PF), and straddle mount terminations.
PCI Express® Gen 6 CEM Card Edge Connectors
Amphenol PCIe® Gen 6 connectors exceed industry standard PCIe® 6.0 performance requirements. These 1.00mm pitch, vertical card edge connectors enable all generations of PCI Express® signaling in desktop PCs, workstations, and servers, Industrial PCs, embedded systems, routers, automotive infotainment systems, and respirators.
PCI Express® Gen 6 DirectAttached™ CEM Card Edge Connectors
The PCI Express® Gen 6 DirectAttached™ CEM Card Edge Connectors from Amphenol offer superior performance for next-generation systems. The 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, limiting PCB trace loss and features press-fit termination power pins for improved rework.
PCI Express® Gen 6 Flip CEM Card Edge Connectors
The PCI Express® Gen 6 Flip CEM Card Edge Connectors offer a new 1.0mm pitch vertical card edge connector designed in line with PCIe® mating interface standards. Unique to this model are the “JJ” and “LL” contact types, which allow for a 19.5% keep-out area savings. Capable of supporting 64GT/s (Gen 6), its backward-compatible design ensures compatibility with PCIe® 5/4/3/2/1 cards.
PCS
The PCS Series are versatile, high-current, mixed density connectors with low contact resistance. It remains an industry-leading power connector in the market. Options for one, two, or three contact rows provide flexibility in selection and high conductivity contacts are available to maximize current density. Other options - sequential mating, integrated locking latch, and press-fit contacts.
PDC
The PDC connector converts a 2-pin input into a 4-pin output. Basically, the PDC is a mini PDU-like type of connector. Rated current: 8A to 32A. Rated voltage: 500V, 750V, 1000V.
Pegasus
Pegasus is Amphenol Pcd’s latest innovation in small, lightweight, rugged connectors. Designed for use in harsh environments, Pegasus builds on the successful Luminus Series Aerospace connector with the addition of EMI shielding. Tests show between 40db and 60db of attenuation, depending on frequency. RoHS and REACH compliant.
Pegasus High Speed
Pegasus High Speed provides exceptional performance in tight spaces, with a svelte shell size 8 (0.512”) outer diameter. With the explosive growth in Ethernet-enabled devices (IOT), this is size and configuration is particularly suited for endpoint applications, such as individual avionics sensors, panel-mounted units, seat back, and wall-mounted displays and monuments.
