“Currently, connectors designed for high-end computing applications max out at 60.0A to 75.0A per blade,” says Rich Benson, product manager, Molex. “We developed the EXTreme EnergetiC High-Current Connector System, supporting up to 100.0A per bay, in anticipation of the increased current density needs of next-generation power supply units.”
The EXTreme EnergetiC Connector System is available in a right-angle plug and vertical receptacle configurations, with 4- and 6-power blade bays and a 25-signal bay. A variety of configurations can be designed in a modular fashion to support demanding application needs. Data and telecommunication applications include:
-High-end computer and telecom equipment
-1U / 2U servers
-Modular power supplies
-Power distribution circuit boards
