High-performance connector
30 August 2024
Interconnection
Nicomatic and Radiall have joined forces with the CMM SMPM Series being the outcome of this synergy. The connector combines Nicomatic’s expertise in modular connectors for harsh environments with Radiall’s expertise in coaxial contacts, creating a unique product in the market. This new product combines cutting-edge technology and innovative design to meet the demands for compactness and performance in the most challenging applications.
Key features of the CMM SMPM series include:
• High-frequency performance up to 40 GHz.
• High-speed signal transmission up to 50 Gbps.
• High-density with up to 10 contacts per row.
• Integrated secure locking mechanism for increased reliability and security.
The first configurations of the CMM SMPM Series, including the SMT and board-to-cable wiring versions, will be available by the end of 2024. These will be followed by board-to-board options and pre-wired versions.
