Development Partner for Future Generation Cable Assemblies

We are one of only two Intel-qualified suppliers offering these first generation cable assemblies (Intel OPA 100 Series) required for OPA and are also a development partner for future generation cable assembly designs for CPU processors with Intel. ChipConnect cable assemblies reduce system design costs by eliminating the need to use costlier, lower-loss PCB materials and re-timers. With the reduction of the complexity of PCB laminates and routing from these interconnects, system design is made much easier.

Product Features:

Specifications for ChipConnect Cable Assemblies

  • Cables provide 4x and 8x high speed data transmission lanes
  • Straight and right-angle (left/right exit) Linear Edge Connector (LEC) cable plugs to accommodate cable routing
