GENERATE® HIGH-SPEED EDGE CARD SYSTEM
Samtec's Generate® card feature Edge Rate® contacts optimized for signal integrity performance. Available in vertical, right-angle, edge mount, pass-through and power/signal combo for design flexibility.
High-speed edge card systems use Samtec’s Edge Rate® contact system is designed for high speed, high cycle applications. The surface of the Edge Rate® contact is milled creating a smooth mating surface area instead of a stamped contact that mates on a cut edge. This smooth mating surface reduces the wear tracks on the contact increasing the durability and cycle life of the contact system. It also lowers insertion and withdrawal forces allowing the connectors to be zippered when unmating.
