New TE connectors for data centre and networking applications available from Mouser

Mouser is now shipping the new QSFP 112G SMT connectors and cages from TE Connectivity. The connectors enable high-speed data transmission of up to 400 Gbps per port for telecommunication, networking, data centres, and test and measurement applications.

TE Connectivity’s QSFP 112G SMT connectors support 112G-PAM4 modulation and offer thermal performance and backward compatibility for easy upgrades to existing solutions. The QSFP 112G connectors include an integrated thermal bridge and zipper heat sink technology to help improve superior thermal performance and signal integrity, with up to 400 Gbps aggregate data rate per port, with each channel capable of transferring data from 10 to 112 Gbps. The QSFP product portfolio includes cages in single, ganged, and stacked configurations with various light pipe, bezel mount, and heat sink options, perfect for high-density applications such as servers, storage systems, switches, routers, and network interface cards.

With high-density configurations, these connectors fit up to 32 ports in a 1RU switch design and provide additional board trace design flexibility by allowing signal traces to go between PCB layers with all form factors being supported, including DAC, ACC, AEC, and AOC.
