Pattern & Electrical Performance
Description
FCI is pleased to introduce our new 12X EyeMax™ cable assembly product
offering to support high-speed copper serial link applications. This copper
solution offers a low cost alternative to fiber optics for linking servers, storage
and other data network or communication devices. The EyeMax™ link
solution is designed to provide a continuous flow of serial data and eliminate
data traffic congestion, which can occur among hardware devices that use a
parallel bus structure.
Target Markets
• Data
• InfiniBand™
• 10G Fiber Channel
• Serial ATA 2
