Power connectors boast 40A contact rating
GTK has introduced the first 5mm pitch power connector with size 16 contacts to be current rated at up to 40A per contact.
Achieving 1.5 GB/s and up to 3 GB/s data transfer, parts deliver impedance of 100+/-15ohms, as well as a maximum of 6dB attenuation and -26dB crosstalk from 10 to 4500MHz.
Devices connect directly to and are used only with SATA II-enabled hard-drive enclosures.
Cables are flexible (for easy positioning), and compact (for easy storage).
Conductor is 26 AWG tinned stranded copper, with self-cling aluminium Mylar tape shielding.
Cables can be supplied up to 2M in length.
Available in a multitude of configurations, the cables provide standard and custom solutions for applications including straight and right angle cable exits.
Cable mount connectors also comprise detents to prevent accidental dislodging of the cable.
All assemblies use UL-approved flexible shielded cables for EMI protection. Request a free brochure from GTK ...
