Molex Impel Plus Backplane Connector System
Molex Impel Plus Backplane Connector System achieves high signal integrity, high density, and data rates up to 56Gbps. The connectors deliver optimal signal integrity with a grounding tail aligner that minimizes impedance discontinuities and reduces crosstalk. The signal interface improves insertion loss over in-line beams, pushing frequencies past 30GHz. Molex Impel Plus applications include data centers, telecommunications/networking, and medical.
Features
- Compact, compliant-pin 56Gbps backplane connector enables backward and forward compatibility with high-end copper and cable architectures
- 92Ω nominal impedance - minimizes impedance discontinuities in the channel
- Small compliant pin (0.31mm ± -0.05) reduces crosstalk by enabling optimized routing or use of pinning
- Signal beam interface improves insertion loss compared to in-line signal beams
- Pushes interface resonance frequency past 30GHz
- Molex patent-pending Impel Connector technology with tightly coupled differential-pair structure provides optimal signal integrity and mechanical isolation through the connector system
