Connectors
Amphenol has been designing and manufacturing electrical and electronic connectors since the company’s inception in 1932. For nearly a century, we’ve been helping customers transmit power, data and signal in the harshest environments, from subsea applications to the outer reaches of space and everywhere in between. Our wide array of electrical and electronic connectors come in multiple form factors and are designed to meet the latest market needs including high power, high speeds, size and weight reduction, EMI shielding, hermeticity, high pressure and improved board retention. Amphenol also offers a broad portfolio of contact styles, termination types, mating styles, connector geometries and environmentally-friendly RoHS plating.

SAS 3.0 Connectors
SAS 3.0 connectors for next-generation servers with 12Gb/s speeds. The 29-position receptacle and plug connectors feature hot-plugging and blind-mating, connector misalignment compensation, and a PCB retention mechanism for robust SMT attachment. It is SATA compliant and meets a wide range of vertical and R/A configurations for usage across server and storage equipment, HDDs, and HDD carriers.
SAS 4.0 Connectors
SAS 4.0 connectors for next-generation servers with 24Gb/s speeds. The 29-position receptacle & plug connectors feature hot-plugging & blind-mating, connector misalignment compensation, and a PCB retention mechanism for robust SMT attachment. It is SATA compliant and meets a wide range of vertical and R/A configurations for usage across server and storage equipment, HDDs, HDD carriers, and SSDs.
SAS/PCIe 3.0 (U.2) Connectors
SAS/PCIe 3.0 connectors are designed for next-generation servers with 12Gb/s speeds. The 68-position, SAS/PCIe receptacle, and header enable high-speed Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) hard disk drive (HDD) interface as well as Peripheral Component Express (PCIe)-based devices. These connectors are backward compatible with 6Gb/s SAS, SATA, and 3Gb/s SFF8482 connectors.
SAS/PCIe 4.0 (U.2&U.3) Connectors
SAS/PCIe® 4.0 (U.2 & U.3) connectors come with 16GT/s (PCIe® lanes) or 24Gb/s (SAS lanes) speeds to meet the demands of next-generation servers. The 68-position, SAS/PCIe® receptacle and header enable implementation of high-speed SAS hard disk drive (HDD) interface as well as PCIe®-based devices. The molded guidepost allows the device plug and receptacle to self-align during the mating process.
SAS/PCIe 5.0 (U.2 & U.3) Connectors
SAS/PCIe 5.0 (U.2 & U.3) connectors come with 32GT/s (PCIe lanes) and 24Gb/s (SAS lanes) speeds to meet the demands of next-generation servers. The 68-position, SAS/PCIe receptacle and header enable implementation of high-speed Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) hard disk drive (HDD) interface as well as Peripheral Component Express (PCIe)-based devices.
SATA (Serial ATA) Connectors
Amphenol offers a wide range of high-performance SATA connectors. They are designed to support up to 12Gb/s, enabling the implementation of low cost, high speed, high capacity hard disk drive (HDD). The connectors are SATA compliant and meet a wide range of vertical and right-angle configurations for usage across server and storage equipment, HDDs, and HDD carriers.
