SAS Mini HD Receptacle for High-Density Backplane Interconnects
The TE Connectivity 2227642-1 is a SAS Mini HD receptacle designed for high-density backplane interconnect applications. This 144-position connector is arranged as a 1x4 configuration (36 positions per bay), providing a compact, high-signal-count interface for storage and server backplanes. The press-fit termination eliminates the need for soldering, allowing for a cleaner assembly process and easier rework in high-reliability environments.
Press-Fit Termination for Solderless Backplane Assembly
Press-fit termination is the defining feature of this connector. The through-hole mounting style provides mechanical retention, and the press-fit compliant pin design ensures a gas-tight connection suitable for high-vibration environments common in data center and telecom equipment.
