SEARAY / SEARAY Slim Connectors

Low-profile SEARAY Mezzanine Connectors and Jumpers deliver a 12.5+ Gbps data rate, small footprint and robust solder-charge termination while SEARAY Slim Connectors also improve airflow to address thermal management issues.

Product Highlights


Data Rate:Stack Height:Circuits:
12.5+ Gbps7.00 - 17.00mmSEARAY: 90 - 500
SEARAY SLIM: 40 - 200

Features and Benefits


Multiple stack heights (7.00 to 17.00mm) and circuit options (SEARAY: 90 to 500; SEARAY Slim: 40 to 200):
• Delivers high-speed differential and single-ended performance in low profile applications
• Provide design flexibility

Patented solder-charge technology: Solder precisely stamped onto terminals:
• Provides a more reliable termination method over BGA connectors
• Reduces cost over BGA connectors because connectors need to go through solder process only once

Robust guiding pins on both ends of the connector and polarization design:
• Provides correct alignment
• Reduces risk of damage to mating interface
• Supports blind mating applications

Large lead-in and shrouded terminal housing:
• Prevents stubbing
• Protects terminals during mating

1.27 by 1.27mm pitch grid (footprint):
• Maximizes routing flexibility and grounding

12.5+ Gbps data rate:
• Delivers high-density signal transfer

Narrow body design:
• Provides optimal airflow and design flexibility

Available with custom Copper Flex Cable Jumpers:
• Delivers complete solution for applications needing design flexibility

Overview


As competition pressures increase, many OEMs are looking for ways to contain manufacturing costs without sacrificing quality. SEARAY Connectors and Jumpers provide date rates up to 12.5+ Gbps. Also, because jumpers employ solder-charge technology, they offer lower applied cost compared to BGA connectors.

Compact connectors that deliver high data rates often generate a lot of heat in space-constrained applications. SEARAY Slim Connectors address thermal management issues with a narrow body design to provide optimal airflow.

As designers work to keep up with the growing demands placed on networking and telecommunications infrastructure, space constraints have become an issue. SEARAY Mezzanine Connectors provide high-density signal transfer and a low profile to mitigate space constraints while meeting high data rate requirements. SEARAY Slim version offers 4 rows of signal contacts with a 7.00mm-wide footprint, as narrow as many 2-row mezzanine connectors.
