Amphenol FCI PCI Express® (PCIe) Gen 6 Card Edge Connectors
Amphenol FCI PCI Express® (PCIe) Gen 6 Card Edge Connectors exceed industry-standard PCIe 6.0 performance requirements and are footprint-interchangeable with PCIe 5/4/3/2/1. These 1mm-pitch vertical connectors are optimized for backward compatibility and support all generations of PCIe signaling. The lineup offers side- and locked-latch variants, a metal-caged version, as well as the option to remove ridges to meet specific application requirements. Amphenol FCI PCIe Gen 6 Card Edge Connectors are high-performing and provide high-speed data transmission rates of up to 64GT/s. These connectors are ideal for desktop/industrial PCs, servers, embedded systems, routers, and automotive infotainment systems.
