Pervasive bandwidth requirements due to the tremendous growth in wireless devices are the catalyst for large-scale (100 Gbps) system designs in server farms. zQSFP+ connectors transmit up to 25 Gbps per-serial-lane data rates with excellent signal integrity, relieving some of the pressure on core switches. The operating power for plugs was increased from 3.5 to 5W. The increased wattage also increased the heat generated, necessitating a thermally enhanced component to manage that extra heat. zQSFP+ Interconnect System with thermal protection offers three options to manage heat: a through-flow cage optimized to allow airflow through the midsection of the cage, an internal riding heat sink, and a top-riding heat sink to help increase airflow and manage the additional heat generated by the 5-watt plugs.

In LED lighting applications, components can sometimes create shadows if the profile is too high. Achieving the lowest-profile possible helps minimize any shadowing effects, while providing additional space savings to meet downsizing needs in all applications. Previous interconnect methods for lighting applications include two-piece housing style systems that are higher profile and require higher component and assembly costs; or direct-wire soldering, which saves space but does not allow for unmating and also creates a weak solder joint and risk of a faulty signal. In addition, some applications require both wire-to-board and board-to-board solutions, which traditionally would require separate board-to-board and wire-to-board mating components. Molex addresses these needs with the new TermiMate™ connector system by providing an ultra-low profile terminal-only system that prevents shadowing and offers wire-to-board and board-to-board options using the same plug terminal for design flexibility and component and assembly cost savings.
