High-performance, future-proof system enables data rates to 28 Gbps (roadmap to 56+ Gbps) and/or greater distances by flying data over lossy PCB materials. The design enhances signal integrity and architectural flexibility, while an ultra micro footprint enables industry-leading density.
Samtec’s micro optical engine and high-speed cable expertise, along with a multitude of heat sink and End 2 connector options, enables cost-effective, high-performance solutions for applications including 12G-SDI broadcast video, data center and HPC protocols (e.g. Ethernet).
Optical cable system transmits PCIe® signals at Gen 3 data transfer rates through FireFly™ optical up to 100 meters. The cable assembly and optional adaptor card support PCIe® protocol for delivering high data rates, low latency, power savings and guaranteed transmission.
Future-proof system with interchangeability of FireFly™ copper and optical using the same micro connector system for up to 28 Gbps per lane.
This passive optical system features a patch cable with MTP end options and a single or double port adaptor with keying options for proper alignment.
