HALO has released a new line of Gigabit FastJack integrated connectors. This new family uses an enhanced design claimed to provide improved return loss and low cost in a real-estate-efficient connector package.
Gigabit FastJacks are available in single, 'Ganged' and 'Stacked and Ganged' versions. Two footprint interchangeable standard circuits are available meeting the IEEE802.3ab requirements for noise immunity as well as yielding superior emissions results. This robust family provides an increase of as much as -3 dB return loss performance over the 1-125 MHz frequency range. This improved performance enables customers to extend their port distances to well beyond the 100 m specified by IEEE, says the manufacturer.
The cost per port of the Gigabit FastJacks is claimed to be less than the cost of a traditional discrete circuit making this the most cost effective solution for both DTE and switch applications. The new design incorporates the traditional connector bodies eliminating the need for larger and more costly solutions.
