Three types of backplane connectors for passing high-current, high-speed differential signals

The backplane connector is a type of connector commonly used in large-scale communication equipment, ultra-high-performance servers and supercomputers, industrial computers, and high-end storage devices. Mainly used to transmit large current, high-speed differential signals, etc. There are three types of backplane connectors:

1. Low-speed backplane connector

Low-speed backplane connectors such as DIN41612 are the first low-speed backplane connectors to be introduced in this field, typically used in the telecommunications industry, and only support speeds of 1Gb/s. However, there is still a huge market for these connectors as they serve many applications that only require lower speeds. These backplane connectors are more economical than other higher speed versions on the market today.

2. Medium-speed backplane connector

Many industries require the use of connectors with speeds greater than 1Gb/s, while requiring reliable performance within a limited budget. This triggered the introduction of mid-speed backplane connectors. Mid-speed backplane connectors meet the 4Gb/s to 5Gb/s speed requirements of many modular complex server systems. Therefore it is widely used.

3. High-speed backplane connector

As technology advances, the need for faster data rates begins to increase. High-speed backplane connectors increase the speed of backplane connectors from 1Gb/s to 112Gb/s with high reliability and increased electrical conductivity and electromagnetic shielding performance.
