Higher-density SFP+ interconnect system to support 10 Gbps

21 March 2007 Interconnection

Molex' SFP+ Interconnect System is a complete solution that meets the next generation small form factor (SFF) 8431 specification and reaches 10 Gbps speeds using the same port space as a standard SFP system. It also occupies 30% less space than a standard XFP system, offering a higher data density solution than standard SFP and XFP products.

The SFP+ Interconnect System was developed to support applications for 8 Gbps Fibre Channel and 10 Gbps Ethernet. It is also well-suited for networking, storage and telecommunications applications. In addition to a 20-circuit host connector, stacked multiport connectors and active and passive patch cables, the SFP+ Interconnect System offers single and single layer ganged cages that provide customers with options to make the best use of PCB real estate to meet their design needs.
