FCI, a top-tier manufacturer of connectors and interconnect systems, has recently launched a 25Gb/s XCede vertical backplane plug and a right-angle daughter card socket. These new products are designed to meet the growing demand for high-speed data transmission in advanced computing systems. The vertical backplane plug offers flexible configurations, with each signal connector module available in four, six, or eight columns, each containing two, four, or six differential signal pairs. Additionally, the series includes options for double, triple, or four-sided retaining walls, with the three-sided version featuring an integrated guide post and polarized keyholes for improved alignment and reliability.
As a second supplier to Amphenol, FCI is authorized to manufacture, market, and sell all XCede products and related add-ons. Nicholas Tan, FCI's Global Product Marketing Manager, highlighted the strong collaboration between the two companies: "Thanks to our mutual licensing agreement, customers can seamlessly interchange backplane plugs or daughter card connectors. FCI and Amphenol have successfully paired all four differential signal pairs of the XCede plugs, ensuring optimal performance. A comprehensive compatibility test was conducted to validate the reliability of the socket products."
The XCede Connector Platform is engineered to support long-term evolution for device platforms that require higher signal speeds and performance levels in the future. The use of advanced engineered polymers in the resonant damping shield minimizes crosstalk resonance and delivers exceptionally low crosstalk across a wide frequency range, ensuring superior signal integrity.
In terms of density, the XCede connector meets the increasing demand for linear signal density at backplane or midplane interfaces. For 6-pair differential connectors, a minimum of 36 mm slot spacing is provided, resulting in 82.4 differential signal pairs per inch. For 4-pair differential connectors, the spacing is 25 mm, offering 54.9 signal pairs per inch. And for 2-pair differential connectors, the spacing is as tight as 15 mm, delivering 27.5 signal pairs per inch along the card edge.
The XCede product line also includes complementary guidance and power modules. In addition to a right-angle pure signal socket, customers can choose custom combinations that integrate a right-angle signal module, a pilot module, and a power module into a single connector, enhancing flexibility and functionality.
Designed for high-end systems, the XCede backplane plug ensures long-term reliability. Its vertical design features wide floor joints with extended ribs near the top end, providing enhanced ruggedness and protection for signal pins. This makes it ideal for demanding environments where durability and performance are critical.
