Amphenol ICC added three new products to our high speed and high-density portfolio in June. The high-speed SAS/PCIe 5.0 (U.2 & U.3) connectors come with 32GT/s (PCIe lanes) and 24Gb/s (SAS lanes) speeds to meet the demands of next-generation servers.  The 3000W EnergyEdge™ X-treme Card Edge series is the highest linear density card edge connectors available in the market today. The next-generation OverPass™ solution - ExtremePort™ Flash is a design capable of transmitting a high-speed signal up to 56G PAM4.

SAS/PCIe 5.0 (U.2 & U.3) Connectors

SAS/PCIe 5.0 is a highly flexible connector with 68-position capable of meeting application requirements of  24Gb/s SSDs and HDDs or PCle based devices at 32GT/s. These connectors come with a molded guidepost that allows the device header and receptacle to self-align during the mating process. These connectors offer a cost-effective solution, as they are backward compatible with 12Gb/s, 6Gb/s SAS, SATA and 3Gb/s SFF8482 connectors. These can be used for both mission-critical and bulk storage applications. It also offers an enhanced durability of 500 mating cycles.

3000W EnergyEdge™ X-treme 

With twice the contact points of existing card edge products, EnergyEdge™ X-treme product series offers a 25% improvement in the linear current density. This revolutionary contact design carries 3000W in the same 43mm space of eHPCE, providing up to a size reduction of 23%, making it an ideal option to power modern system architectures. The series features two variations of power contacts, a dual-beam contact option with a pitch of 5.08mm rated at 28A per contact and a 3-beam option at a pitch of 7.62mm rated at 42A per contact. These connectors are available in straddle mount, right angle, right angle coplanar and vertical configurations and are suitable for a wide range of applications in data, communications, industrial and instrumentation fields.

ExtremePort™ Flash Connector

The 0.60mm ExtremePort™ flash connector is a next-generation near chip high-speed solution with an extreme low profile design. Compared to PCB routing methods, these connectors allow greater signal path lengths along with maintaining SI performance. ExtremePort™ Flash connectors are cost-effective, highly modular, scalable, and extremely easy to repair. These connectors target data and communications industries.
