As a leading manufacturer of connectors and connection systems, FCI has developed a comprehensive range of high-speed I/O interfaces designed to support terabit-level system bandwidth. These solutions are available in both copper and fiber optic variants, with the XLerateâ„¢ family offering high-speed I/O trace options that operate at speeds ranging from 10 Gb/s to 150 Gb/s. The XLerateâ„¢ series supports three widely used industry-standard form factors: SFP+, QSFP+, and CXP, making it an ideal choice for network designers working on IP switching and core routing devices in large data centers.

The XLerateâ„¢-1X solution is based on the SFP+ form factor and features an SR (short-range) optical transceiver that consumes 25% less power than the maximum allowed by the MSA specification. The XLerateâ„¢-4X solution comes in a QSFP+ package and provides a total bandwidth of up to 56 Gb/s. Meanwhile, the 12-channel CXP form factor in the XLerateâ„¢-12X portfolio delivers the highest linear density and the lowest power per gigabit, making it a top choice for high-performance applications.

"What makes FCI’s XLerate solution so compelling is that we are the only supplier offering complete speed and form factor options across both copper and fiber products," said Tristan Wen, Regional Business Development Manager at FCI. "This allows designers to optimize performance and cost without sacrificing flexibility." He added, "More and more leading equipment vendors in the switching and routing space are now incorporating these three form factors into their product offerings, reflecting growing demand for scalable and efficient connectivity solutions."
