XCede® HD High-Density Backplane System
Samtec's XCede HD small form factor high-density backplane system is ideal for density-critical applications
Samtec's XCede HD consists of signal, power, and keying/guidance modules for incredible design flexibility, combining a small form factor for significant board and system space savings. The system's modularity allows designers to create a fully custom backplane solution with optional power modules, guidance and keying, and side walls for increased durability. Featuring a staggered differential pin design, the ground pins mate first for hot-plugging to help prevent system downtime.
