High-Speed Backplane Systems
High-speed, high-density backplane systems include ExaMAX® and XCede® HD in a variety of pair and column counts. ExaMAX® enables to 56 Gbps performance and allows designers the option to optimize density or minimize board layer count. XCede® HD is a small form factor system with a modular design for significant space savings and flexibility.

Solar Power While the cost and benefits of solar power can and have been debated, there’s one point that cannot be debated: the solar energy sector continues to grow. The solar energy sector has grown 68% over the last decade, and the cost of solar infrastructure and installat...
Samtec.com is constantly evolving as the world changes. Each month we do a post for what was updated the previous month. We thought it might be fun to show you a crystal ball preview into some of the larger changes you’ll be seeing in the next few months. Shopping Cart Upgrade Cu...
What do the QSFP-DD800 MSA and VITA 57 have in common? Fair question. One focuses on defining the next-gen pluggable form factors while the other complements FPGA mezzanine applications. So what is the link? Samtec, of course! Samtec participates in many Industry Standards to dev...
Two in one. Three in one. All in one. We are constantly looking for that one thing with multiple uses or solutions. From laundry detergent that fights stains, cleans deep and protects color all at the same time, to the twenty-in-one pocket knife with a glass-breaker. I guess you ...
In my former role as a compliance engineer, I was repeatedly asked for Samtec’s Business Continuity Plan. This was normally part of a yearly vendor/supplier survey that ensures that a company could still supply products in the event of a disruption. For most people, this isn’t so...
