SFP+ Cables/Connectors

SFP+ ( SFP Plus) interconnect system – 10 Gb/s bandwidth capability.
FCI ‘s SFP+ interconnect system increases small form factor based port bandwidth density well above existing SFP or XFP systems.
The SFP + ( Small Form-factor Pluggable) interconnect system consists of connectors , EMI cages and cable assemblies that allows the user to enable single port bandwidth of 10 Gb/s while maintaining the same linear PCB port density as earlier SFP systems. This product offering is fully performance compliant with 10 Gigabit-Ethernet, 8G FibreChannel and 10G FibreChannel over Ethernet industry standards. System functionality is defined by and meets industry standards SFF-8431 and -8461 specifications. This system has been successfully deployed in data center, networking and high performance computing applications.

FCI offers an SMT mounted 20 position edge card connector, robust PCB mounted EMI cages are in 1x1, 1x2 and 1x4 ganged cage configurations and copper based passive and actively equalized cable assemblies offering in the maximum cable lengths allowed per the performance specifications noted above. Further product and technical information along with downloadable 3-D and signal integrity simulation models can be obtained at the useful links section below.

Features & Benefits
Fully compatible with all SFP+ interfaces & mechanical backwards compatibility with SFP
Designed to be compliant with SFF-8431 and SFF-8461 industry standard
100 ohm differential impedance
Allows for 10Gb/s per channel transmission up to 7 meters (passive cable assembly)
Allows for 10Gb/s per channel transmission up to 15 meters (actively equalized cable assembly)
Optimized PCB interface board to minimize crosstalk and insertion loss
Stamped EMI girdle to assure superior EMI shielding effectiveness
EEPROM for cable signature & system communications
Actively equalized cables will enable longer cable lengths or can enable the use of smaller cable diameters for shorter cable lengths
Lower cost and lower power solution when compared to fiber optic links
32 AWG to 24 AWG cable sizes available
