In the current booming development of AI technology and intelligent driving, the demand for data processing speed and capacity is exploding, and the high efficiency of data transmission poses many challenges to the connector industry. Recently, Amphenol, TE, Molex and other head connector manufacturers have launched multiple high-performance connector products that can meet the connectivity needs of AI, data centers, autonomous driving, industrial automation and other fields
Molex CX2 connectors and CX2 Dual Speed connectors and cable assemblies
CX2 connectors and CX2-DS connectors, along with cable components, help customers meet their AI driven demands for higher speed and larger capacity, providing near chip cable connector solutions. Supports next-generation data rates and implements a direct connection system architecture from chip to chip. These systems support the transmission of high-speed signals from near the chip to other parts of the system through dual axis cables, significantly improving signal integrity (SI) and system performance compared to using PCB wiring.
Advantage:
Supports next-generation data rates of up to 112G (CX2) or 224G (CX2-DS)
The pin layout of the isolated transceiver/receiver adopts an innovative shielding structure and is equipped with high-performance dual axis cables, which helps achieve transmission rates of up to 112Gbps on CX2 connectors. CX2-DS is an enhanced version of CX2 that doubles/strengthens the signal rate and bandwidth. The CX2-DS connector can achieve a transmission rate of up to 224Gbps.
Improve reliability and ensure that connectors are fully seated to prevent mismatches and accidental disconnection of connections
The two-piece mating kit consisting of connectors and sockets has mechanical wiping function and can be fixed by latches or screws.
Maximize system performance and expand the connection range inside the machine box
The cable assembly uses 31 AWG (CX2) or 30AWG (CX2-DS) dual axis cables to support BiPass
Cable system architecture solution.
Minimize the risk of PCB connector pin damage during installation to the greatest extent possible
The fully protected anti misconnection interface simplifies assembly work and helps ensure reliable connector mating.
It can reduce crosstalk and improve signal integrity, thereby achieving higher signal rates. This design ensures high-speed performance while minimizing signal attenuation.
