Molex SpeedEdge Edge-Card Connector System

Molex SpeedEdge Edge-Card Connector System offers a high-density, low-profile solution with data rates of over 40Gbps per differential pair and is robust enough to mate safely with large PCBs in high-cycle applications. The SpeedEdge connectors support PCIe Generation (Gen) 3.0 and Intel Quick Path Interconnect (QPI) requirements for next-generation I/O and memory signaling. These connectors are available in multiple circuit sizes (22mm, 60mm, and 82mm), ranging from 6 to 32 differential pairs. Typical applications include automotive, consumer, medical, networking, and telecommunications.
