Backplane Connectors High Speed Product Name
Impact™
GBX I-Trac™
Description The Impact™ backplane connector system for conventional, coplanar and mezzanine configurations provides data rates up to 25 Gbps and superior signal density up to 80 differential pairs per inch. Achieve low cross-talk and high signal bandwidth while minimising channel-performance variation across every differential pair within the system.
GBX I-Trac™ system, available in standard backplane, Orthogonal midplane, high-current power modules, Inverted and Coplanar configurations provides design flexibility and enables future system performance upgrades without requiring platform re-design. Capable of supporting next-generation applications with data rates of 12.5 Gbps or higher.
