The new Z-PACK TinMan Backplane Connector family  is a cost-effective solution for customers searching for a high density, high performance backplane interconnect system.
The Z-PACK TinMan Connector design follows proven industry backplane convention by offering a fully protected right-angle receptacle for use on daughtercards where handling damage can be a concern when mating to a vertical male header. This connector permits field repairability at either the module or single pin levels.
Ground contacts positioned within each column of the connector, combined with unique contact lead frame arrangements, enable the Z-PACK TinMan Connector to achieve low crosstalk and high through-put performance levels. Reliability is assured with a dual point of contact mating interface and compliant pin interface to the printed circuit board.
