High-Speed I/O Cables & Connectors for Data Centers & AI

Our CDFP technology enables a x16 link width within a single port and will be scalable to support x8 and x4 channels. As the industry upgrades from PCIe Gen 5 to PCIe Gen 6, the connector footprint migrates from press-fit to surface mount technology (SMT). We also offer the passive copper cable which is typically used for current hyperscale / cloud applications.

QSFP-DD (quad small form-factor pluggable double density) doubles the capacity of QSFP interconnects with an eight-lane electrical interface capable of 28 Gbps NRZ, 56 Gbps PAM4, and 112 Gbps PAM4 to achieve up to 800 Gbps per port. QSFP-DD connector portfolio’s backwards compatibility allows existing QSFP modules to be plugged into QSFP-DD ports.

Our complete quad small form factor pluggable, QSFP connector portfolio includes QSFP+, zQSFP, QSFP28, QSFP56 and QSFP 112G. We provide a large range of simple and customizable design options. Our QSFP portfolio provides a simple upgrade path from 10 Gbps NRZ to 28 Gbps NRZ, 56 Gbps PAM-4, and 112Gbps PAM-4 — including four channels of data in one pluggable interface.

TE's Mini-SAS HD (high density) product family includes compact, high-speed I/O solutions for SAS applications: storage, rack-mount servers, workstations, storage racks, high performance computing, HBAs (host bus adapters), RAID (redundant arrays of inexpensive disks), switches and more. Our Internal Mini-SAS HD connectors and cable assemblies provide 30% space savings over conventional internal Mini-SAS interconnects. The product family supports speeds up to 12 Gb/s and includes the following interfaces:

Our active optical cable assembly portfolio provides greater cable flexibility and longer reach, as compared to both traditional passive copper solutions and emerging active copper (ACC/AEC) solutions, supporting high performance computing, data center, and networking interconnect applications.
