MOLEX 2040661138

The Impel Plus backplane connector system enables data rates up to 56 Gbps with superior signal integrity performance, and supports forward and backward compatibility with compact-compatible pinouts.

• Compact, pin-compatible 56 Gbps backplane connector with forward and backward compatibility across various high-speed copper cable and cable architectures.
• Optional short compliant pin enabling 0.65mm back-drilling with top-layer access for high-speed routing.
• Improved signal integrity performance through shallower PCB via holes, reducing layer count to lower PCB cost.
• Small compliant pin (0.31mm ± 0.05mm) minimizing crosstalk through optimized routing or via-in-pad.
• Innovative signal beam interface improving insertion loss and pushing interface resonant frequency above 30 GHz compared to in-line signal beams.
• Ground tail aligner for lead frame and wafer shielding, positioned closer to the daughter card launch to improve ground return path, minimize impedance discontinuities, and reduce crosstalk.
• Compliant with IEEE 10GBASE-KR and OIF Stat Eye standard channel, demonstrating end-to-end channel performance compliance.
• Nominal impedance of 92 ohms, minimizing impedance discontinuities in the channel.
• Available in 3-pair, 4-pair, and 6-pair daughter cards with multiple column sizes for design flexibility.
• Molex patent-pending Impel connector technology utilizing tightly coupled differential pair architecture for optimal signal integrity and mechanical isolation through the connector system.
• Impel Plus 4-pair right-angle daughter card at 1.90mm pitch with high-speed automated production line.
• Cable assemblies available for Impel Plus 3-pair, 4-pair, and 6-pair daughter cards and Impel cables (shown with Impel 6-pair daughter card assembly).
• Full mechanical, electrical, and test capabilities for complete backplane solutions with value-added cable tray.
• Impel cable assemblies up to 3.0m compatible with 3-pair, 4-pair, and 6-pair Impel Plus daughter card configurations, supporting design flexibility to maximize differential pair density.
