AMP Z-DOK Connectors | TE Connectivity

The CHAMP Z-Dok Connector system includes two options for systems designers. The fiirst option is the Z-Dok connector, which provides the following features:

• Robust, blind-mateable, high-speed docking connector
• Data rates up to 6.250 Gb/s (Double XAUI speeds)
• Differential pair, 100 ohm, low cross talk
• Available with and without sensing contacts
• Position sizes form 8 to 72 differential pair in increments of 8 differential pair modules
• Unique Tri-Q contact system that provides a 2 to 1 signal to ground ratio for maintaining superior signal integrity

The second option is the CHAMP Z-Dok+, which includes a high-speed section with the same features as standard Z-Dok and adds up to 3 "Utility" modules to each side of the connector. Each “Utility” module provides flexibility for sytems designers to include power, ground, ESD and sensing functions to I/O adapter cards and docking applications.

The Z-Dok+ Connector System can be provided in the same position sizes as the standard Z-Dok (8 to 72 differential pair). The Utility modules can be added to either side of the high-speed section with a maximum of three (3) on each side. This arrangement will provide a total of six (6) positions for the power, ground, ESD and sensing funtions. Four different length contacts can be loaded into the “Utility” modules to provide the ultimate desgin flexibility.
