PV® Wire-to-Board and Wire-to-Wire Connector System
VERSATILE DESIGN FOR DEMANDING APPLICATIONS
Amphenol's PV® solution is a versatile and modular system able to meet all the board-to-board, board-to-wire, and wire-to-wire applications where high density outstanding electrical and mechanical performances are required.
PwrBlade+® cable connectors offer flexibility to meet a wide variety of customer needs. The connectors come in both Cable-To-Cable and Cable-To-Board solutions. The PwrBlade+® cable provides a flexible, low-cost solution in applications such as telecommunication switches, high-end servers, and hot-swappable power supplies.
The PwrBlade+® connector is a next-generation AC/DC power distribution connector system for demanding applications requiring higher linear current density and low power loss. It is capable of 192A/linear inch with eight adjacent high power contacts energized simultaneously and 0.7m power contact resistance after environmental exposure.
The PwrBlade® cable connectors are designed to mate to PwrBlade® R/A or vertical board-mounted headers. By expanding beyond BTB applications, designers can now connect power supplies and power distribution sub-assemblies in a wider range of applications. The combination of cable connection capability with Amphenol's proven PwrBlade BTB system provides a universal power distribution connector.
The PwrBlade® power distribution connector system from Amphenol includes power and signal contacts to provide power distribution and power control in a single connector. Options for either vertical or right-angle versions of PCB-mount headers and receptacles deliver support for coplanar, backplane, or mezzanine connections.
PwrBlade® Mini Board-to-Board connector enhances Amphenol's existing PwrBlade® product line with the smallest profile to date. PwrBlade® Mini has an 8.10mm height above board, making it the lowest height power and signal board-to-board connector in the PwrBlade® portfolio. PwrBlade® Mini has a very low end-of-life contact resistance less than 2.0mΩ after testing
PwrBlade® Mini Cable-to-Board strengthens the PwrBlade® cable portfolio even further. Mini cable-toboard serves as an I/O cable configuration to meet the ever-increasing demand for higher current density in low profile applications. Mini cable-to-board is capable of carrying up to 25A/contact (50A/column) with 4 adjacent contacts powered.
The PwrBlade® Mini connector series introduces enhanced features to our existing PwrBlade® products in a smaller profile. PwrBlade® MiniMezz is available in stack heights ranging from 8mm - 20mm with options for power & signal contacts. It also has blind-mate guides that allow for ±0.80mm of gatherability for blind-mate applications.
PwrBlade® ULTRA's design offers an overall height reduction of 24% to reduce airflow impedance in high-density power supplies. Three contact choices are available; High Power, Low Power, and Signal. Ultra-high conductivity materials and new highly conductive plating, combine to produce an ultra-low resistance of just 0.4mΩ at end-of-life conditions.
HIGH POWER BOARD-TO-BOARD CONNECTOR SYSTEM
Amphenol's new, PwrBlade® ULTRA HD+ connector series features an enhanced high-power contact design capable of providing up to 100A per contact (per 4 adjacent contacts) and high-density signal options with up to 6 signal pins per column.
HIGH-POWER CABLE-TO-BOARD CONNECTOR SYSTEM
Amphenol's PwrBlade® ULTRA HD+ Cable-to-Board serves as a high-power I/O cable configuration in a low-profile design. The connector features an enhanced contact design capable of providing up to 84A per contact (per 4 adjacent contacts) and high-density signal options with up to 6 signal pins per column.
PwrBlok® connectors provide a high current power interconnection with a quick connect/disconnect function for space-constrained board-to-board, board-to-busbar, and busbar-to-busbar power distribution applications.
PwrLoPro® connectors are a family of board-to-board power connectors designed to deliver more current with lower profile height and less board space. This high-density and low-profile connector is developed to meet next-generation of 1U applications, telecommunications switches, high-end servers, and hot-pluggable power suppliers.
PwrMAX® G2 is the highest density blind-mate power and signal connector available. PwrMAX® G2 series carries up to 100A per contact and features design improvements to reduce board space depth, while also improving the blind mate gatherability. The depth on board has been reduced from 32.4mm to 27.4mm with an overall space savings of 18%.
PwrMAX® I/O is the highest density power and signal cable connector available. It is capable of carrying up to 50A/Contact (100A/column) with 12 adjacent contacts powered. A range of 6AWG - 8AWG wire options are available for power contacts and 22AWG for signal contacts. This connector series also offers slide-to-lock or squeeze-to-release latching options.
