Samtec Flyover® QSFP Cable Systems
Samtec Flyover® QSFP (FQSFP) Cable Systems provide improved and extended signal integrity by flying critical data over lossy PCB materials. Critical high-speed signals are flown directly to the panel via an ultra-low skew twinax cable, offering architectural flexibility. Featuring an ultra-high-density design, Flyover QSFP Cable Systems from Samtec include sideband signaling via press-fit contacts to help increase airflow and multiple "End 2" options that enable maximum design flexibility.
FQSFP Cable Systems
The FQSFP systems have 4 channels, up to 400Gbps aggregate, and are compatible with all MSA QSFP pluggable. This series has a heat dissipation rating of -3.5W per cable and a modular design that enables an optimized system to improve heat management, increase signal integrity performance, and build in scalability for future upgrades.
FEATURES
• 4 channels (4 bidirectional, 8 differential pairs)
• Up to 400Gbps aggregate (112Gbps PAM4)
• Compatible with all MSA QSFP pluggable
• Multiple heat sink options available for optimal dissipation
• Eye Speed® 30AWG or 34AWG twinax cable
• Multiple "End 2" options for design flexibility
QSFPC Cages
Flyover QSFP Cages are designed for use with FQSFP cable assemblies. The cages are available in a one- or two-port configuration and feature spring fingers for EMI panel protection.
FEATURES
• 1- and 2-port configurations
• Spring fingers for EMI panel protection
• Optional light pipe
• Designed for use with FQSFP cable assemblies
HS-QSFP Heat Sinks
Flyover QSFP Heat Sinks are designed for use with QSFPC cages and offer a variety of heights to accommodate specific applications. These heat sinks have a pin style, and an optional light pipe is available.
