Connector system fits high-speed standards

Edited by the Electronicstalk editorial team Mar 22, 2007

New generation of high speed connectors and cables cater for data transmission rates up to 5Gbit/s.

Yamaichi Electronics has a new generation of high speed connectors and cables for data transmission rates up to 5Gbit/s.

The new connector system is available with internal connections conforming to LVDS, HDMI, DVI, PCI-Express and Serial ATA standards.

Like the proven HF503 series (for data transmission rates up to 1.1Gbit/s), the new HF507 series is also an integrated connector and FPC cable concept.

The FPC cable uses LCP insulation material and is based on the established YFlex technology from Yamaichi thus guaranteeing excellent high speed data transmission characteristics.

Elaborate and cost-intensive cable assembly is no longer required - the high speed cable is delivered customised, pre-assembled and of course 100% tested.

A secure connection between connector and cable is ensured using a side-lock mechanism.

The SMT connectors are designed for reflow soldering and pick-and-place mounting from the tape and reel packaging, and are also available with an additional metal shield for use in EMI-sensitive environments.
