We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Futurebus",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Electronicstalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release Hermaphrodites simplify interboard mating from
Acal Electronics, which we summarised at the time by saying "Acal Electronics has two families of fine-pitch surface-mount board-to-board connectors from Delphi Connection Systems".
A few weeks before,
we featured the news release Futurebus data connectors from
Genalog: "The Harwin Futurebus connector system is based on a modular 2mm grid for high-density high-speed signal board-to-backplane applications at a datarate of 0.622Gbit/s".
In August 2002, we covered the news from Genalog
concerning its Futurebus connector range
- take a look at Modular basis for Futurebus connector range
which says: "Genalog has a new modular 2.00mm grid connector system for use in telecomms, networking and high-end computing applications".
Take a look also at the news release from Harwin, Flexible Futurebus connector system,
as well as Tiny backplane connectors support InfiniBand from Tyco Electronics UK,
and Four- and five-row Futurebus connectors from Raycon Technology.
