SSMP® Interconnect Series
2022-10-26
●INTRODUCTION
■Carlisle Interconnect Technologies (CarlisleIT) designed the SSMP® connector product line to further improve package density of RF/Microwave systems. The SSMP interface is about 30% smaller than its predecessor, the SMP connector. Now an industry standard (as outlined in the MIL-STD-348 document) for RF/Microwave applications, the SSMP interface has enabled design engineers to increase performance and complexity of their designs while simultaneously improving upon their form factor.
■The SSMP interconnect system relies on a floating female-to-female adapter, commonly referred to as a "bullet", to enable stacking of boards equipped with an SSMP male PCB connector. The durable construction and ability to tolerate radial and axial misalignment allows for a blindmate interconnect solution that can withstand multiple engagement/disengagement cycles without degradation in electrical performance.
■Due to its high frequency performance along with a blindmate configuration, the SSMP connector is a standard interface in optical networking components, specifically 40G and 100G Modulator and Driver amplifiers
●FEATURES AND BENEFITS
■Frequency Range: DC - 65 GHz
■50 Ω Impedance; Blindmateable configuration
■MIL-PRF-39012 compliant
■Ability to withstand Radial/Axial Misalignment
■Board-mount, Field-replaceable, Bullets, Hermetic and Cable Connector configurations
■Custom Connectors Available
