Like the HF503 series (for data transmission rates up to 1.1 Gbps), the new HF507 series is also an integrated connector and FPC cable concept. The FPC cable uses LCP insulation material and is based on the established YFLEX technology from Yamaichi providing high speed data transmission characteristics. Elaborate and cost-intensive cable assembly is no longer required – the high speed cable is delivered customized, pre-assembled and 100% tested.
A secure connection between connector and cable is ensured using a side-lock mechanism. The SMT connectors are designed for reflow soldering and pick-and-place mounting from the tape and reel packaging, and for EMI sensitive environments, are also available with an additional metal shield.
