Molex has introduced a mechanically-integrated lightpipe cover assembly that attaches to its small form-factor pluggable (SFP) cage to reduce assembly time and eliminate processing issues.
Designed to provide a 'link' or 'no link' status using LEDs mounted on the PCB, the integrated lightpipes and SFP cages allow the user to reduce manufacturing time and therefore cost. Lightpipes are attached to the cover with cage-mounted tabs to ensure proper cover placement and positive latching. The cover is applied to the cage after the cage is pressed into the PCB, which ensures proper cage placement on the PCB.
The SFP system follows the function of standard gigabit interface converter (GBIC) products, with reduced size and increased data transfer rates at and beyond 2,5 Gbps. Ganged cages are used for EMI shielding of copper and optical pluggable transceivers when plugged into host equipment, such as network switches, routers, servers and storage devices.
Lightpipes and SFP cages are packaged and shipped separately.
