10114868-E0J-50B

Backplane connectors are designed to provide electrical connectivity in an array of high-speed digital applications. The 10114868-E0J-50B backplane connector, developed by leading technology company Molex Inc., is a specialized connector that is designed for components powered by high-frequency signals, such as GDDR5 memory or high-speed Serial ATA (SATA) drives. The connector is built with tight tolerance specifications and features a total of fifty high-speed contacts that are inserted into an array of board-to-board connections.

The 10114868-E0J-50B backplane connector is designed using an SMT design that provides impedance matched interconnects for reliable and fast signal transportation. The connector consists of four hubs of twelve contacts and a single central hub of eight contacts. Each hub is designed using a four-times staggered pattern approach which helps to reduce the total capacitance between the contacts. This approach also increases the level of signal integrity and prevents crosstalk between the high-speed electrical signals running between the contacts.

The 10114868-E0J-50B backplane connector is compatible with established high-speed digital protocols, such as Serial ATA and PCIe x4 and x8, making it a versatile solution for a range of different applications. The connector is also designed to comply with IEC 60320-1 and IEC 60320-2 requirements for electrical safety and fire prevention. The connector’s comprehensive locking system offers robust hold against shock and vibration, providing secure connections in harsh environments.

The working principle of the 10114868-E0J-50B backplane connector is quite simple. The connector is inserted into the mating board which is then clamped to the backplane. This process creates an array of entire board-to-board connections. The contacts on the connector are then positioned and set into place, creating the necessary electrical connections for the components. The comprehensive locking system provides a vibration- and shock-resistant connection that is ideal for high-speed digital applications.

The 10114868-E0J-50B backplane connector is an ideal choice for high-speed digital applications such as graphics cards, Solid State Drives (SSDs), flexible storage systems, and LAN switches. The connector’s combination of high-speed contact performance, SMT design, and comprehensive locking system makes it a reliable connector solution for a wide range of demanding applications.
