Our life is dynamically improving in multitudes of aspects. From home to transport, public administration, industry and communication, each day technology is surprising us with fantasy like developments. Electronics is indeed the fundamental to the rapid development across industries and connectors are the essential part giving life to the technologies we can name. Technological developments and innovations in connectors complement each other in creating revolutions.

Singapore – Amphenol ICC is pleased to announce today, the release of its PCIe^® M.2 Gen5 connectors. These connectors perform to PCI-SIG PCIe^® M.2 5.0 specifications supporting higher data rates up to 32Gb/s and it provides 67 gold plated contacts on 0.50mm pitch.

A new application with advanced features using cutting edge technology is being introduced to the market every other day. This, in turn is mounting the requirement of high speed high reliable connector solutions. PCI Express (PCIe®) is a popular standard for various applications from small, mobile devices to IoT sensors and servers to networking and communications equipment.

Amphenol has continued to offer high speed, high-performance storage and server connectors supporting various datacenter elements. We have connectors meeting advanced standards like SAS 4.0 and PCIe^® Gen 5. 

PCI stands for Peripheral Component Interconnect, and it is a common connection interface attaching different computer components to a motherboard. It was introduced back in the early 90’s by a group of engineers in Intel, AMD, and other companies. Though it aimed at supporting complex data transfers, in the beginning, it evolved to extend its possibilities beyond that. The PCI bus was available in both 32-bit and 64-bit versions.
