TE Connectivity offers a

variety of backplane/

midplane solutions to meet

the demand for increased

network bandwidth and

advanced technology. Each

solution is designed for high

performance, increased

density and compatibility

with industry-standard

interfaces.

TE provides a user-friendly

transition between the PCB-

mounted connector and the

backplane/ midplane.

TE has extensive knowledge

and expertise on high-speed

interface design. Your

specific needs can be

customized and transformed

into new manufacturable

designs.

The Impact backplane

connector and cable system

from TE pushes the speed

and density envelope to

meet the growing demands

of next-generation telecom-

munication and data net-

working equipment; the

system is available in 2-6

pair configurations with a

complete range of guidance

and power-solution options

plus right-angle cable

assemblies.

The Impact system is

available in two compliant-

pin design options on both

daughter card and back-

plane connectors, providing

customers ultimate flexibility

to optimize their designs for

advanced mechanical and

electrical performance. The

Impact system’s mating

interface provides in-line

staggered, bifurcated con-

tacts that provide 2 points of

contact for the long-term

reliability performance and

built-in, ground-signal

sequencing. This reduces

the average mating force per

connector to improve the

mechanical mating

performance of the system.
