Data communication


FR 1,27 series board-to-board connectors

High-speed board-to-board connectors Identifying influences on data transmission and optimizing data integrity

Networking the world demands that devices and interfaces can transmit data ever faster. The white paper explains how you can achieve high data integrity with impedance-optimized board-to-board connectors, their pin assignment, and the corresponding PCB layer structure.

Employees with products for signal integrity

Optimizing signal integrity through simulations and measurements Consistent interfaces for Industry 4.0

With the increasing networking of modern devices, the number of interfaces is also increasing. The goal is to achieve data transmission that is impaired as little as possible. This depends to a large extent on the interaction of all cables and connector components. Read the white paper to find out what role signal integrity plays in performance and what factors influence connector impedance.

Fiber-optic cables

Fiber-optic cables High-speed data transmission for industrial applications

Fiber-optic cables are mainly used for data transmission in communications engineering and IT. However, due to the exceptional characteristics, small dimensions, and flexibility, optical data transmission via fiber-optic cable is also interesting for other industries – from building infrastructure, through factory automation, right through to data centers. Find out more about high-speed data transmission for industrial applications in our white paper.
