Molex zSFP+ Connectors

Molex zSFP+ Connectors support high-speed serial interconnect equipment. These plugs feature small-form-factor pluggable connectors that integrate advanced EMI shielding and backward-compatible designs, enabling direct replacement in existing SFP+ layouts. The zSFP+ SMT Connectors support a maximum current of 0.5 A and a maximum voltage of 30 Vdc/Vac. These surface mount connectors come with a minimum durability of 100 cycles and operating temperatures ranging from -40°C to +85°C. Typical applications include cable boxes, central office infrastructure, data storage systems, switches, and hubs.
