These cable receptacles contain STRADA Whisper connectors on one end and connect to several other high-speed solutions on the other, including mid-board, backplane, or input/output (I/O) products, bypassing the printed circuit board (PCB) and resulting minimization insertion loss and crosstalk. TE’s STRADA Whisper cable receptacles are utilized for maintaining optimized signal integrity at high frequencies. The cabled receptacles could also save space on the PCB, which can be necessary for dense equipment designs.
– The majority of the vendors are manufacturing edge-computing power connectors to facilitate the flow of highly sensitive data from the device to the cloud and back again. This factor is essential for manufacturing connectors for AI and augmented reality. The outbreak of COVID-19 has led China to announce a lockdown and practice social isolation in the initial months of 2020. This factor halted manufacturing, as well as the production of various equipment and machinery for several weeks. Furthermore, the country also restricted its import and export of critical raw materials and industrial equipment. This factor is impacting the supply chain. Alternatively, several retailers and distributors’ closure reduced the availability of components, such as connectors, across the European and North American regions.
