Samtec ARF6-08-S-D-A-K-TR
Product Overview
The ARC6/ARF6 AcceleRate Slim, Direct Attach Cable Assemblies offer a high-density, 2-row design with 8, 16, and 24 differential pair configurations. Utilizing 34 AWG Eye Speed ultra low skew twinax cable, these assemblies support PCIe 6.0/CXL 3.1 applications and 64 Gbps PAM4 (32 Gbps NRZ) data rates. They feature rugged metal latching and shielding, right-angle options, and direct soldering of contacts to the twinax for improved signal integrity. The mating board level socket (ARF6 Series) includes rugged weld tabs for increased PCB stability. Samtec's Flyover Technology is employed to simplify board layout and extend signal reach.
Advantages:
- Slimmest cable assembly in the industry (7.6 mm width).
- High-density 2-row design.
- Multiple wiring options, including reverse polarity.
- Rugged metal latching and shielding.
- Improved signal integrity due to direct soldering to twinax.
- Simplified board layout and extended signal reach with Flyover Technology.
Applications:
- PCIe 6.0/CXL 3.1 applications.
- 64 Gbps PAM4 (32 Gbps NRZ) data rates.
