The High-Speed Cable Interconnect Solutions Guide is where you will find Samtec’s latest offerings in the world of high-speed cable assemblies.

However, Samtec also offers support and services unmatched in the industry to help our customers find the best fit for their application.

The high-speed cable offerings don’t stop at copper, but also include optics; I/O; and RF.

Samtec Flyover^™ Architecture

Samtec Flyover^™ design breaks the constraints of traditional signaling substrate and hardware offerings, resulting in a cost-effective, high-performance and heat efficient answer to the challenges of 56 Gbps bandwidths and beyond.

Flexibity & Customization

Samtec takes flexibility and customization to an entirely new level.

If you need a Samtec Flyover^™ QSFP28 system with multiple end two options; we have you covered.

Want to start with Copper before trying fiber? Samtec has the industry’s only interchangeable copper or fiber micro connector system with multiple end two options.

Maybe you need to mix-and-match high-speed connector end options with any breakout configuration, Samtec can accommodate many different needs.

Manufacturing & Capabilities

Samtec’s proprietary co-extruded ultra low skew twinax cable supports the Flyover™ architecture.

With the combination of the High-Speed Cable Plant, High-Speed Cable Group, and the Cable Management Group; Samtec is well positioned to lead the market in speed and innovation. 

So what is new in this update?

Thermal Advantages

Thermal improvement is one of the many benefits of using Samtec Flyover™ Technology, and perhaps the easiest way to show it is through an image.

Samtec Flyover^™ Technology allows system designers the ability to move the ASIC away from heat sensitive components, and distribute the heat throughout the system.

Characterization Kits

Samtec has expanded its offerings of Characterization and Development Kits to provide kits for many of its high end products.

In each of the product sections you will find the applicable characterization kit part number, and where to locate it for more information; www.samtec.com/kits.

High-Performance Test and Precision RF

Samtec recently started offering precision RF assemblies and interconnects alongside Bulls Eye® high-performance test point system.

Bulls Eye® is offered in 20, 50, and 65 (in development) GHz.

The precision RF assemblies and interconnects are offered from 18 GHz to 100 GHz.

Dynamic Testing

Samtec Eye Speed® Ultra Low Skew Twinax underwent Dynamic Insertion and Return Loss testing, proving the cable to be rugged with stable electrical performance after 250 flex / bend cycles.

The arduous flex and bend test determined that the performance of Samtec Eye Speed® ultra low skew twinax is essentially indistinguishable from the original unbent cable.

Cable Management

Samtec works with system architects in the early stages of design to optimize the architecture for cable management while keeping signal integrity and thermals in mind.

This is a complimentary service that provides mockups with accurate cable lengths and helps to minimize pressure drops and number of SKUs within the system. For more information contact HDR@samtec.com.
