The CFP2 and CFP4 interconnect systems are comprised of insert molding assemblies for top side contacts and press-t
cage assemblies. Both CFP2 and CFP4 have a plug connector on the mating interface that improves accuracy and aids in
achieving high speed performance.
General Characteristics
• Complies with IEEE and ITU-T applications
• 0.6mm contact pitch
• CFP2 has 104 positions, CFP4 has 56 positions.
• Rated for 25 Gbps per ch. with resonance dampening for
improved signal integrity.
• Module and host systems are hot pluggable, not damaged
by insertion/removal
• Integrated kickout spring with cage assembly for CFP4
Applications
• Supports 40Gbit/s and 100Gbit/s interfaces for Ethernet
(IEEE802.3), Telecommunication (ITU-T) and other
optical networking applications
• Supports single mode and multimode ber optics
• Accommodates a wide range of power dissipations and
applications
• Nominal signalling rate of 25Gbit/s per ch.
Key Features
• Two piece electrical connector for superior electrical
performance and superior mechanical integrity
• Supports LC, MTP12 and MTP24 optical connector
types
• Alternative solutions to limitations of QSFP+:
thermal, jitter budget and reach
