VersaLink Bridge: 100 Ohm connectors and jumpers for high-speed board applications

BRIDGE

VersaLink Bridge: bypass high-loss board traces with a small, low insertion-loss and low signal-latency point-to-point Twinax jumper H igh-speed data transmission from one PCB to another, from one side of a backplane to another, or even from one side of a complex embedded system to another, is frequently accomplished by routing high-speed traces on a dedicated high-speed signal layer. This is a complex assignment—fraught with potential for impedance discontinuities and unacceptable insertion loss—as traces must navigate difficult and/or long routing paths around via columns and other board irregularities. The Glenair VersaLink Bridge is a high-density, micro- form factor twinax connector / jumper assembly used to bridge the gap between point A and point B on the board (such
