Amphenol CS Mini Cool Edge IO connector

Amphenol CS introduces the next-generation OverPass™ solution-Mini Cool Edge IO. The 0.60mm pitch connector come with a slim form factor design, capable of transmitting high-speed signal up to 56G PAM4/PCIe® Gen 4/PCIe® Gen 5, and allowing much greater signal path lengths while maintaining SI performance when compared to conventional pcb routing methods.

Mini Cool Edge IO not only provides a SI performance ready signal transmission but also a new way of system design that is cost-effective, highly modular, scalable, and extremely easy to repair.

• High speed-56Gb/s PAM4/PCIe® Gen 4/PCIe® Gen 5 capability
• Supports both cable and card edge connection

Features

• 0.60mm pitch, vertical and right angle configurations
• Slim form factor for compact data center system designs
• Up to 56Gb/s PAM4, PCIe® Gen 4, PCIe® Gen 5, over 1.0 meter transmission distance
• Extends transmission range far more over the conventional PCB routes
• Supports both cable and card edge applications with one identical connector
• Provides flexibility in system design to meet highly modular, scalable and easy-to-repair requirements
• Optional for 92Ω (G42 series), 85Ω (G97 series) and 95Ω (G98 series) impedance and various pin number options-meeting PCIe®/NVMe/SAS/SFP(+)/QSFP specifications
• Saves system material cost, engineering and certification expenses with high succession of system design

Applications
