Molex Showcases Next-Generation PRIZM™ LightTurn™ Cable Assemblies at OFC/NFOEC Booth #2021

Business Wire
Molex Incorporated (NASDAQ: MOLX) (NASDAQ: MOLXA) announced
today the availability of PRIZM™ LightTurn™ cable assemblies, using
the low-profile connectors from US Conec Ltd. that mate to Avago
Technologies’ new MicroPODTM 120 Gbps board mounted parallel optic
modules. The Prizm LightTurn’s perpendicular mating capability
improves airflow and cable management as well as increases
real-estate opportunities on dense printed circuit boards
(PCB).
Molex provides the multi-fiber cable assembly termination
expertise and assembly capabilities for this next-generation
solution. “By combining Molex’s PRIZM LightTurn cable assemblies
with Molex’s high-density front panel and blindmate backplane
interconnects we are able to offer our customers the most diverse
end-to-end solutions,” said Tom Schiltz, product manager, Multi
Fiber Products, Molex Incorporated. “The unique perpendicular
mating of the PRIZM LightTurn connector to Avago’s MicroPOD module
is an improvement over current parallel optical modules used in the
telecom, datacom and emerging high speed computercom markets.”
The perpendicular mating allows for the tight spacing of modules
and improved cable management because the parallel optical modules
can be aligned in rows. The multi-fiber ribbon cable assemblies are
mated on top of the modules, providing improved airflow on the PCB.
By using 12-, 24-, 48-, and 72-fiber MT ferrules, PRIZM LightTurn
12 fiber ribbon fiber cables can be mated to Molex’s high density
interconnects including HBMT™, Array Connector and Circular MT
connectors.
The connectors will be displayed at the Optical Fiber
Communication Conference and Exposition (OFC) and the National
Fiber Optic Engineers Conference (NFOEC), booth #2021, March 23-
25.
PRIZM LightTurn cable assemblies manufactured by Molex have been
validated by US Conec to meet the functional requirements of the
Avago module. For more information, please visit
