Ideal for 400G and 800G systems, users can easily characterize all high speed lines in a simple to use form factor
The Benefits of TR Multicoax
Signal Integrity:
Ardent’s interconnect technology was born of a simple concept; What if we could eliminate the barrel and the plunger from a traditional “pogo” style spring pin and make the spring inside behave like an electrical contact instead of behaving like an inductor at multi-GHz speeds?
Solderless
Our products are all based on solderless compression mount technology enabling more reliable and electrically repeatable performance over time and across programs. Our solderless compression products allow our customers to be agile in changing their designs without having to scrap entire projects and printed circuit boards with components soldered to the board. This leads to enhanced flexibility and cost savings.
Density
Contacts can be arranged in pitches down to 0.4mm (grid array) and 2.54mm signal-to-signal (coaxial array) to scale up the number of lanes in any system.
Mechanical Reliability
Mil-Spec qualified and rated for thousands of cycles in the harshest environments, Ardent’s patented technologies are production proven with over 20 years of field use for test and measurement and OEM interconnect.
