Features and Benefits

The EdgeLine portfolio encompasses a dynamic group of product families that take advantage of the compact and clean interface of plated fingers on the edge of a printed circuit board. These one-piece solutions are cost effective - they are only required when a peripheral interface or upgrade card is populated. EdgeLine connectors have a customizable card-edge interface where designers can specify first-mate, last-break designations as well as shorter stubs for high-speed communications.

The EdgeLine portfolio consists of vertical 12.5, 15 and 25 Gbps edge-card connectors including EdgeLine Signal Power (ESP), Coplanar, CoEdge and CoBridge, all of which deliver low-cost, flexible and scalable solutions for low-to-mid-range telecom, computing and storage applications.
