Half-width version of stacking connector delivers flexibility

TYCO High-speed, stacking STRADA Mesa connector half wide provides design and application flexibility through a slim width of 16.15mm. Product includes four differential pairs per column compared to the eight differential pairs per column offered by the standard width production sizes one, two and three, which when fully loaded yield 24, 48 and 88 pairs respectively. The configuration provides users to break out a pcb footprint in two signal layers. In addition, the new product significantly increases connector airflow.
