0.55mm Pitch High-Performance Coaxial Harness / Non-Magnetic Type “TSL-NM2 Series”

KEL Corporation is pleased to announce the launch of the “TSL-NM2 Series,” a 0.55mm pitch high-performance coaxial harness with a non-magnetic design.

This new series enhances the original “TSL Series,” which supports high-speed differential transmission up to 32Gbps, with features such as low profile and non-magnetic materials.

Product Overview:

  • Supports high-speed differential transmission up to 32Gbps.
  • Achieves improved attenuation by optimizing impedance through connector material, shape, and dimensions, and mitigating resonance by smoothing the ground and transmission paths.
  • Designed with a 0.5mm effective mating length, minimizing insertion depth and optimizing stub length for enhanced signal performance.
  • Features a multi-point grounding mechanism and a metal shield shell enclosing the entire connector for superior noise suppression.
  • Combines with TOTOKU’s high-performance coaxial cable “RUOTA” to achieve low loss and low skew.
    “RUOTA” is a registered trademark of TOTOKU Electric Co., Ltd. (Reg. No. 5594596).
  • KEL guarantees quality for the harness product. With RUOTA AWG#32 cables (up to 1000mm), a pair skew of 10ps or less is guaranteed.
  • Equipped with a nickel barrier at the PCB-side contact to prevent solder wicking.
  • Horizontal connection design with a low mated height of 2.17mm.
  • Built with non-magnetic materials for immunity to magnetic field interference.
  • Features a click-lock mechanism for secure mating.
  • Connector is available in 31 positions.
    Dedicated removal tools are available upon request. Please contact our sales representatives.
