From Digi-Key, the Tyco Electronics CFP compliant connector
is a new ultra high speed pluggable I/O interface supporting 40Gb/s and 100Gb/s
Ethernet applications. The integrated system provides the mechanical, EMI and
thermal performance necessary to meet the demanding requirements of the CFP
Multi Source Agreement (MSA) optical transceivers and OEM host line cards.
Insertion loss, return loss and cross talk exceed the performance of existing
industry 10Gb/s solutions.
Features:
- 10x solution using Tyco Electronics high speed 148 position
connector, supporting 10Gb/s per channel
- Plug connector straddle mounts to the optical transceiver
module printed circuit board for conventional processing
- Receptacle connector is surface mount (SMT) processed to the
host board for conventional processing
- Design supports belly-to-belly port positioning (mounted on
both sides of host board) for high density
- Accepts all CFP MSA compliant optical transceivers
- Provides EMI shielding at the host connector interface and
at the bezel opening via integrated EMI gasketing
Applications:
- Switches and routers for telecom and data center
applications
- Optical transport equipment for long haul, metro, and
multiservice provisioning platform applications
