The Plateau HS Dock Connectors from Molex is a high-speed docking system that delivers design flexibility for PCB blade and PCB midplane telecom and computer server applications. Using its proprietary Plateau Technology that features a gold plated housing, Molex created fully-shielded connectors that feature high-performance and increased signal integrity.

The 1,50 mm Plateau HS Dock connectors are available in multiple configurations, including a right angle receptacle to either a right angle or vertical plug that is intermateable and interchangeable. With a robust contact design, it features four levels of mating to be used in hot pluggable applications, as well as a compliant pin for the PCB interface. These high-speed connectors offer increased design flexibility with their offset heights. They also include a low mating force, guide features and mating in a standard or inverted position. Multiple design options for differential signalling (144, 120, 108, and 72 circuit sizes) are available.
