Chennai: The US-based Tyco Electronics Corporation has launched Multi-Beam XL, a blind mateable board-to-board power distribution connector system.

Ideal for blind mating in modular and rack mounted systems, it consists of a right angle pin header and both a right angle and vertical receptacle, each available in solder and press-fit configurations.

Typical industry applications of the product include power distribution for compact (1U) computer servers up through high-end servers, fault-tolerant computers and telecommunication switches.

The connector has been designed and manufactured to be mass-customisable and therefore allows the customer to select the exact number of power and signal contacts as well as the mating sequence of contacts they need for their specific application.

"The heart of the Multi-Beam XL connector is the unique power contact which offers higher current ratings, lower contact resistance and lower mating forces than alternative designs. Multi-Beam XL product offers high reliability and high current density in a package designed specifically for modular hot-swappable power distribution systems," says Kuldeep Tikkoo, country manager (communication, computer and consumer electronics), Tyco Electronics Corporation India, a subsidiary of Tyco Electronics Corporation.
