FCI’s DensiShield™ I/O system is designed to support the transmission of high-speed, serial differential signals, while taking customers equipment packaging requirements into consideration. Combining high density, mechanical robustness, and ease of PCB assembly with excellent shielding and signal integrity performance means that system designers no longer have to compromise.
The DensiShield™ connector is built around a wafer system employing a differential pair construction where each pair is shielded from the adjacent pair and the adjacent wafer. The 8-pair connector is ideally suited for 4 bi-directional channels working at >2.5Gb/s, similar to Infiniband or XAUI links, but can also perform at much higher data rates.
