TE Connectivity CFP2 & CFP4 Pluggable I/O Connectors & Cages

TE Connectivity's CFP2 and CFP4 Pluggable I/O Connectors and Cages transfer data 2.8 times faster than current CFP connectors. CFP2 and CFP4 achieve 28Gbps per lane for greater than 100Gbps Ethernet (and other protocols) in a high density, 0.6mm contact pitch. These TE connectors provide excellent signal integrity and feature a ruggedized cage construction, helping ensure reliable connections. Applications include carrier networks and datacenters, metro area networks, and high-capacity multi-100Gbps links.
