SAMTEC FireFly ™ TECHNOLOGY
The SAMTEC’s FireFly ™ Micro Flyover System™ is the first interconnect system that gives a designer the flexibility of using micro footprint optical and copper interconnects interchangeably with the same connector system.
The FireFly™ system enables chip-to-chip, board-to-board, on-board and system-to-system connectivity at data rates up to 28 Gbps. FireFly™ is based on a high performance interconnect system which allows the use of low-cost copper cables or high performance active optical engines.
SAMTEC copper, equalized copper, and optical cable systems provide the flexibility to achieve higher data rates and/or greater distance needs while simplifying board design and enhancing performance.
The FireFly™ Micro Flyover System™ is the first inside-the-box interconnect system that gives designers the choice of using either micro footprint high performance active optical engines or low-cost copper interconnects. This allows the designer to upgrade from electrical to optical FireFly™ using the same connector system.
