Design for Today. Plan for Tomorrow.

This backplane connector frees up PCB space, giving you more room to design. Through a highly configurable construct, the Z-PACK slim UHD connector offers the flexibility needed to design intricate communication systems. This accommodating connector is available in multiple high-speed pin assignments and transfers data at 12.5 Gbps with scalability up to 20 Gbps, offering you the ability to efficiently increase system speed without modifying the existing PCB footprint. In addition, since this slim backplane connector is smaller than similar products on the market, it fits into tight, 15mm (0.6 inch) slot pitch applications.
