OverPass

High Speed Bulk Cables

OverPass

External IO

The OverPass cable assembly portfolio is enhanced by the use of Amphenol Spectra-Strip’s high frequency SkewClear EXD cable technology and manufacturing expertise.

  • offerings include multi-pair cables: 2,4 and 8 pair constructions in wire gages from 32 AWG to 26 AWG
  • feature FEP insulated wiring for the higher temperature environments that OverPass products can be exposed to while minimizing associated signal loss
  • support transmission speeds of 10G, 28G and 56G PAM 4 per lane bandwidths (112G versions in development)

Spectra-Strip engineers work closely with their Amphenol IO connector counterparts assuring our customers the lowest total applied interconnect link cost for their OverPass cable assembly applications.
