Copper Cable Assemblies suit high-speed data applications.

Press Release Summary:




Assemblies are available in 4- and 12-channel, bi-directional versions, utilizing 24 or 26 AWG cable. They minimize skew, crosstalk, and EMI, resulting in near end crosstalk of less than 4% at 3.187 Gbps. Offered in lengths from 0.5-5 m, differential cables handle high-bandwidth environments, such as InfiniBand(TM), 10G Fiber Channel, 10G Ethernet (CX4), and other applications that require speeds of 500 Mbps up to 3.187 Gbps.
