SFP+ Enhanced Connectors

TE Connectivity SFP+ Enhanced Connectors improve thermal performance and EMI containment in applications with demanding bandwidth and data rates. The SFP+ thermal improvements provide an average 3% reduction in temperature, per port, increasing efficiency while requiring less power to operate the overall system. The new enhanced signal quality reduces EMI by approximately 10-12 dBm (within the 10-15 GHz range) due to the internal redesign of the retention and latch plates achieving better electrical connections and product strength while preventing leakage.
