Core Development Trends
High-Frequency and High-Speed: Pushing Performance Boundaries
High-Frequency End: Advancing from Sub-6GHz to millimetre wave (40GHz–67GHz) and terahertz bands, driving innovations in air cavity structures, low-loss materials, and ultra-precision machining to support 5G-A, 6G, satellite communications, and radar applications.
High-Speed End: Single-channel upgrades from 112Gbps to 224Gbps and 448Gbps PAM4. Synergising PAM4 modulation, equalisation techniques, active optical cables (AOCs), and co-packaged optics (CPO) to enhance transmission efficiency and distance, supporting AI data centres and supercomputing demands.
Miniaturisation and Integration: Optimised for high-density deployment
Micro-scale: Pitch reduced from 1.27mm to 0.5mm–0.8mm, featuring low-profile designs (≤2mm) such as board-to-board connectors ≤1.5mm thick, meeting compact device requirements for smartphones, VR/AR, and automotive domain controllers.
Integration: Signal-power unification (e.g., PoE++), opto-electronic hybrid integration (supporting CPO/silicon photonics modules), modular design (replaceable terminals/shielding components) simplifies cabling, reduces costs, and enhances system integration.
High Reliability & Intelligent O&M: Addressing Complex Operating Conditions
Extreme Environment Adaptation: Wide temperature range (-65°C to 150°C), vibration resistance (≥1000Hz), corrosion resistance (salt spray ≥500h), waterproof/dustproof (IP68/IP69K) – meeting aerospace, deep-sea exploration, and new energy vehicle requirements.
Intelligent Features: Integrated temperature/humidity/contact resistance monitoring; self-cleaning contacts, blind-plug floating structure, and hot-swap design enhance maintenance convenience and connection stability.
Green and Sustainable: Cost Reduction, Efficiency Enhancement, Emissions Reduction
Material Optimisation: Lead-free, low-VOC materials; recycled copper alloy applications minimise environmental impact.
Energy Efficiency Enhancement: Low-power design (reduces additional energy consumption from signal loss); efficient thermal management (metal housing + thermal interface material) accommodates high-power RF and AI server cooling requirements.
Standardisation and Interoperability: Reducing Adaptation Costs
Unified Interface Standards: Supports SMA, SMP, 2.92mm, QSFP-DD, OSFP, PCIe 5.0/6.0, enabling seamless cross-vendor device integration.
Comprehensive Testing Protocols: Established high-frequency, high-speed compliance testing frameworks (e.g., eye diagram, jitter, EMI) to shorten product certification cycles and accelerate market access.
