Reflex Plug-in Module Connector for VPX Systems with A (4+4)-lane Transceiver | Smiths Interconnect
The LightCONEX® active blind mate optical interconnect is a revolutionary solution for VPX systems that includes a fixed Plug-in Module Connector and a floating backplane connector compatible with proposed VITA 66.5 standard. The low-profile plug-in module connector is screwed on the board edge through an interposer, saving board space and eliminating fiber cable handling.
Specifications and Features:
Optical interconnect: Mechanical Transfer (MT) ferrule with linear array of 12 parallel multimode fibers
Secure connection: Spring within the backplane optical cable provides the mating force between plug-in module and backplane MTs.
Standards: Designed following VITA 66.5 standard (forthcoming).
Maintenance: Supports two-level maintenance.
Blind mate: Eliminates fiber handling and frees up space on host board.
Robustness: Tested for vibration and shock over industrial temperature range, exposure to humidity, salt fog, sand and dust, mate/un-mate cycles, following military specs.
Module Connector Features：
Rugged: MIL STD 883 compliant
Moisture resistant: sealed
Compact transceiver (L×W×H):27 mm ×14 mm ×3.5 mm
Performance: 28 Gbps/lane from –40 ºC to 85 ºC
Reach: up to 100 m, OM3 fiber
BER: up to 10–9 with −9 dBm sensitivity
Low power consumption: 1.4 W per module (4+4)-lane 28G
Data interface: CML
Board mount: LGA connector
Applications：
VPX single board computing
C4ISR embedded systems
AESA radars
Ethernet switches, high BW communication links
