Modular-Hybrid Data Connectors - NET-AX+
TE´s NET-AX+ modular hybrid data connector can integrate differential and coaxial data, signal, and power contacts in a single connector assembly. NET-AX+ is designed for both the current and next generation of electrical/electronic(E/E) architectures to support the ethernet and SerDes applications of next generation vehicles.
40%
Up to 40% PCB space reduction
≤ 56
Up to 56 Gbps speed
80%
Up to 80% fewer mating assemblies
Vehicles are becoming equipped with an increasing number of sensors, including LiDAR, Radar and cameras. In addition, electronic control units (ECUs) are becoming more powerful, requiring greater numbers of high-speed data as well as signal and power connections in increasingly smaller PCBs. To meet this challenge, TE’s NET-AX+ modular hybrid connector system supports high-speed differential and coaxial data transmission as well as signal and power connections within a single connector assembly. Featuring a chiclet-based building-block design, customizable and modular header design, it offers up to 40% reduced PCB footprint, 80% fewer mating assemblies and optimized installation space for the harness connector.
