Amphenol FCI DensiShield I/O System

Amphenol FCI DensiShield I/O System consists of high-speed cable assemblies and connectors. The system is designed to support the transmission of high-speed, serial differential signals and offers high density, mechanical robustness, excellent shielding, and signal integrity performance. These connectors are designed around a wafer system that uses a differential pair construction, making each pair shielded from the adjacent pair and the adjacent wafer. DensiShield I/O system finds application in communications, data, industrial, medical, and test equipment.

Features

  • 4 bi-directional channels working at >2.5Gb/s
  • 8-pair connectors can be mounted side by side on a 12.5mm pitch enabling multiple I/O ports along a card edge
  • Connects EMC shield to chassis panel and provides shielding to PCB level
  • Crimp ferrule system reliably terminates EMC shield of cable to connector covers
  • Dual-beam contact system provides redundancy and long-term reliability
  • Low crosstalk between differential pairs with controlled 100Ω impedance to match 100Ω shielded pair cable
  • Low vertical profile allows use in systems having 15mm pitch card slot spacing
  • Robust strain relief with a short cable exit enables close spacing between the chassis panel and cabinet door or wall
  • RoHS compliant
  • Signal ground is isolated from EMC ground
  • SMT reflow-compatible PCB connector
