Molex Impel Plus Backplane Connectors

Molex Impel Plus Backplane Connectors support data rates up to 56Gbps and use compact compliant pins for compatibility across systems. A grounding tail aligner is included to minimize impedance discontinuities and reduce crosstalk. The Impel Plus backplane connectors use a signal beam interface that lowers insertion loss compared to in-line beams, allowing operation at frequencies beyond 30GHz. Typical applications include telecommunications, networking, data centers, and medical equipment.
