HIGH SPEED 64GB/S PAM4 DESIGN FOR NEXT-GEN SERVERS AND STORAGE
SAS/PCIe® 6.0 (U.2) connectors come with 64Gb/s PAM4 (PCIe® lanes) and 24Gb/s (SAS lanes) speeds to meet the demands of next-generation servers. The 68-position, SAS/PCIe® receptacle and plug enable implementation of high-speed Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) hard disk drive (HDD) interface as well as Peripheral Component Express (PCIe®)-based devices. The molded guidepost allows the device plug and receptacle to self-align during the mating process. With a halogen-free high-temperature thermoplastic, these connectors are made to withstand diverse conditions. It also offers a durability of 500 mating cycles.
Compatible with SFF8639 specification
Capable of meeting 24Gb/s SSDs and HDDs or PCle® devices at 64Gb/s PAM4
Footprint backward compatible to U.2 Gen 5/Gen 4 connectors
