ZQSFP+ Connectors TE Connectivity's (TE) QSFP+ Connectors are next-generation, high-speed I/O devices in the QSFP family. The z-Quad Small Form-factor Pluggable Plus (QSFP+) product line is designed for applications requiring high-speed, high-density connectors. This series features four channels of high-speed differential signals with data rates up to 40Gbps. zQSFP+ connectors and cage assemblies support 100Gbps (4 x 25Gbps) Ethernet and 100Gbps 4X InfiniBand Enhanced Data Rate (EDR) requirements. The high-temperature, thermoplastic housing, and enhanced EMI cage provide excellent thermal performance/EMI protection. TE QSFP+ Connectors are backward compatible with existing QSFP+ optical modules and cable assemblies, allowing designers to introduce parts for new and future innovations while maintaining compatibility with the standards and speeds currently on the market. Typical applications include telecommunication, data centers, and networking.
