Surface Mount (SMT) Connectors & Cages
• Faceplate density equal to current 1xN QSFP28
• 1x1, 1x2, 1x3, 1x4, 1x5 and 1x6 cages available
• Cages are belly-to-belly compatible
• Connector is traditional SMT with 4 rows
• Multiple heatsink and lightpipe options available
• Customizable with standard PCIe, SAN and
NET heatsink heights, or to customer defined
requirements
• 1, 2 and 4 lightpipe configurations

TE has conducted extensive research on module-to-heatsink thermal performance,
and applied this to optimize QSFP-DD.
• Extensive structural analysis on mechanical design and performance
• Wear and durability testing to ensure repeated results over time
• Proprietary finish on riding heatsink mating interface for optimal heat transfer
