TTI is Your Resource for Compact PCI Connectors from Smiths Interconnect
Smiths Interconnect’s ruggedized 2 mm cPCI Series addresses the market need for a high reliability connector solution which meets the mechanical footprint and electrical performance of the Compact PCI specification. Highly optimized for durability and high-speed performance, the cPCI connectors utilize the superior hyperboloid contact technology. The 0.4 mm hyperboloid contacts in the backplane provide a current rating of 1 A and data rate performance up to 3.125 Gbps with less than 8 mΩ contact resistance. This combined with optimized lead traces provides exception performance in high-speed signal applications.
Our connectors have completed and exceeded rigorous testing from NASA for extreme environmental conditions, including thermal excursions, corrosive atmospheres, excessive shock and vibration and contact engagement/separation cycling.
As a result, NASA released specification S-311-P-822 naming Smiths Interconnect‘s Hyperboloid 2 mm cPCI as the mandated Compact PCI connector in all NASA space flights.
The 2 mm cPCI Series are the high-reliability connectors essential in any mission critical applications that are fully interchangeable with Compact PCI COTS systems and IEC 1076-4-101 compliant.
Manufactured to withstand the rigors of the galaxy’s toughest conditions.
