It is a right-angle surface-mount connector designed to sit at the edge of a PCB, accepting standard SFP and SFP+ transceiver modules.
Board Layout and SMT Assembly
The surface-mount termination keeps the profile low and suits reflow assembly. Packaged in Tape & Reel (TR) with a Cut Tape (CT) option, so it feeds directly into a pick-and-place machine without a reel changeover. The reel quantity is standard for this connector class — enough for a medium-volume run without splitting a reel.
SFP and SFP+ Compatibility
This receptacle mates with the standard SFP cage assembly and accepts SFP and SFP+ transceiver modules. The 20-position pinout follows the SFP MSA (Multi-Source Agreement) — the same footprint used across TE, Amphenol, and Molex SFP connectors. There is no keying variation; any SFP or SFP+ module with the standard edge-finger interface seats into this receptacle.
