Vertical version of 6,25 Gbps female connector

8 March 2006 Interconnection

To accommodate the diverse range of applications for board-to-board connections, Erni has supplemented its popular high-speed ERmet ZD line to include a vertical version with a 4-row female connector.

When expanding modern assembly systems, implementing Mezzanine applications, or transferring signals via the backplane (rear I/O), the design requires high-performance board-to-board connectors. Erni's vertical ERmet ZD female connectors, with two, three and four rows of contacts, expand its portfolio of right-angle female and vertical male versions. High-speed connectors from the ERmet ZD series enable reliable transmission of fast signals, high contact density, and support of various industry standards, such as PICMG 2.20, PICMG 3.0 (ACTA) or PICMG EXP.0 says the company.

The vertical, 4-row, ERmet ZD female connector, with 40 differential signal pairs, is currently available with an assembly height of 15 mm (12 mm and 22 mm heights are planned).

The vertical ERmet ZD female connector is available with pressfit technology. As with the right-angle versions, it also features alignment guides. Because of the optimised design and the effective shielding, the company says the ERmet ZD System achieves impressive figures for crosstalk and reflections - delivering reliable transmission at data rates up to 6,25 Gbps.
