High Density Connection Enhances PXIe Test and Measurement
High Density Connector Housings for PXIe
The PRX and PX family of high-density connectors represent a new generation of multipin connectors that provide single slot efficiency in PXIe instrument modules through a high density of size-16 PkZ® microwave contacts while achieving electrical performance beyond that of the existing SMB or multipin connectors.
The PRX and PX family of connectors optimize:
- Radial contact stability
- Contact retention
- Axial mating tolerance
- Insertion forces
- De-mating forces
- Cable type, termination, and cable management
Addressing each of these objectives requires unique design features in the contacts and the housings giving these families a robust design with the precision to operate into the mmWave region.
