Ultra High Density Interconnects
 Reduce Overall Cost of Test
GORE™ Ultra High Density (UHD) Interconnects provide an integrated system of board mount headers and ganged cable assemblies with reliable signal integrity performance. Cost savings are achieved through shorter test set up, fewer calibrations, and smaller boards. GORE™ UHD Interconnects enable lower loss, lower skew, better impedance control, and shorter board trace lengths.
Cable Assembly Solutions Available On-Line
GORE™ UHD Interconnects can be configured on-line to meet specific application requirements. GORE™ Low Loss UHD Cable Assemblies utilize GORE™ Low Loss Coaxial Cable, made using ePTFE dielectric, with UHD-S, UHD-P, and SMA-P connectors. For additional bandwidth, GORE™ High Frequency UHD Cable Assemblies utilize GORE™ Ultra-Low Loss Coaxial Cable and precision UHD connectors to achieve performance up to 15 GHz, supporting up to 10 Gigabit data rates.
GORE™ UHD Cable Assemblies are available as single lines or ganged into 2-, 4- or 8-position housings that allow easier handling, quick connect and disconnect, and better cable management. A 10pS relative time match is standard for all ganged UHD Cable Assemblies.
