CFP2 Receptacle for High-Speed Line Cards
The TE Connectivity 2274845-1 is a CFP2 receptacle — the board-side half of the C form-factor pluggable interface used in 100 GbE and 400 GbE optical transceiver modules. With 104 positions on a fine-pitch SMT footprint, it routes the high-speed differential pairs and management signals between the line card and the CFP2 module cage.
Board Layout and Assembly Fit
The SMT right-angle termination suits automated pick-and-place lines — the Tape & Reel packaging feeds directly into the feeder. Gold contact finish on all 104 positions preserves signal integrity on the low-swing differential pairs; tin would oxidize and introduce noise at these data rates.
