Elevated Connectors Ease Field Upgrades

The time required to make field upgrades in 1U chassis applications can be drastically reduced, it's claimed, with the MP2-P120E elevated board-to-board connector system. The right-angle mounted header is elevated above the main motherboard, permitting easy slide access when installing or changing add-on cards.Designed for low-profile 1U "pizza box" routers, hubs, modems and communications switches, the system offers higher density and pin counts. Five rows of contacts pack 120 signal paths into less than 2" of linear pc board space.
