MicroSpeed Connectors

ERNI's MicroSpeed connectors enable data transmission up to 25 Gb/s with high signal quality and reliability. These connectors provide a versatile interconnect solution by providing 2-row, 3-row, and 7-row connector versions as well as 5 mm to 20 mm board-to-board spacing using different heights. The MicroSpeed connectors feature low electromagnetic radiation and high immunity to interference. The connectors have a pitch of 1 mm and are available in SMT (single contact) or THR (shield contacts) terminations. These connectors are ideal for next-generation communication standards like Ethernet 100 Gbps, optical internetworking forum (OIF), and USB 3.1. In addition to the signal connector, MicroSpeed also has a power module, MicroSpeed Power, which is single-row, 5-pin with a 2 mm pitch and delivers up to 18 A per contact and has shielding options as well as SMT and SMT/THR termination styles. This power module is not solely for MicroSpeed; it also works with other ERNI connectors such as SMC.
