8MS8 Series Multi-Channel I/O Twin Axial Cable Assemblies
The 8MS8 series uses 3M™ twin axial cable technology, making it highly routable, foldable, and flexible
High-speed cable assemblies are essential for the efficient operation of systems that process large volumes of data. 3M's cabling solutions are ideal for connecting devices with the latest industry-standard physical interfaces for high-performance computing, routers, storage, and switches. The 8MS8 series uses 3M twin axial cable technology, making it highly routable, foldable, and flexible. The thin, low-profile, twin-ax ribbon cable allows more routing options within a case and enables many packaging configurations. Foldable ribbon construction allows for extremely tight bend radii with minimal performance impact.
3M's multi-channel I/O twin axial cable assembly is a family of cable assemblies including x4 (38p) and x8 (74p) connectors utilizing 3M low loss twin axial cable 85 ohm, 31 AWG, which is ideal for PCIe® applications.
3M multi-channel I/O twin axial cable assemblies are designed to support high-density PCIe applications and meet SFF-TA-1016 specifications. Signal integrity (SI) performance metrics are not degraded, even with multiple folds.
