Quick Reference Guide High Speed Input/Output Solutions The pluggable I/O interface offers significant advantages as a high speed I/O interconnect. With a standard equipment I/O interface and the flexibility of pluggable modules come the options for fiber and copper links, and various data rates and protocols. TE Connectivity (TE) has always been at the forefront of development of pluggable I/O standards. TE continues to be engaged in new pluggable interface standards to support the rapidly changing market needs for higher bandwidth, and remains at the forefront with the technical expertise required to deliver superior designs for signal integrity and EMI at higher data rates.
