    摘要: High density card edge connectors with hybrid interface for both signal and power transmissions. The connectors can provide both high-quality, high-speed signal transmission and high power transmission, while being backward compatible with physical requirements set by already defined industry standards (e.g., current version of SFF-TA-1002—Rev 1.3). A connector can have a type of conductive elements configured for high speed signal transmission (e.g., up to 112 GT/s), and another type of conductive elements configured for high power transmission (e.g., up to 200 W) while still satisfying the requirements on the quality of signals transmitted by the signal conductive elements at high speed. The connector housing can have multiple ports and wider channels in at least one port, such that signal and power conductive elements can be disposed in a same port with the power conductive elements disposed in the wider channels and signal conductive elements disposed outside the wider channels.
