gold post-plated contacts
for high reliability
All MULTI-BEAM XL
products in this section are
RoHS compliant
MULTI-BEAM XL is a
blind-mateable board-to-
board power distribution
connector system. The
heart of the MULTI-BEAM XL
connector is the unique
power contact which offers
higher current ratings, lower
contact resistance and
lower mating forces than
alternative designs. The
connector is designed and
manufactured in a modular
approach and therefore
allows the customer to
select the number of power
and signal contacts as well
as the mating sequence
of contacts they need for
their specific application.
The product is also avail-
able in versions complying
to the Server Systems
Infrastructure (SSI) Standard.
The MULTI-BEAM XL prod-
uct offers high reliability
and high current density
in a package designed
specifically for modular
hot-swappable power
distribution systems.
MULTI-BEAM XL connectors
are ideal for blind-mating in
modular and rack mounted
systems. The high perform-
ance design and heavy
gold plated contacts meet
requirements across many
applications including
Power Distribution for
compact (1U) computer
servers up through
High-End Servers, Fault-
tolerant Computers,
Networking Equipment,
Telecommunication Switches,
Medical Instrumentation
and Industrial Control
equipment.
The compact design also
meets the I/O needs of
modern Modular and
Hot-Swappable redundant
(N+1) Power Supplies
and Uninterruptible
Power Supplies.

Improved MULTI-BEAM XL power contact design features
eight independent beams which provide:
I
Electrical performance — Parallel current paths yield a
lower contact resistance
I
Mechanical performance — Tuned beam design provides
low mating forces and high durability life cycles
I
Traditional Dual-Beam design also available
Twin-beam signal receptacle contact design mates on milled
surface, to reduce plating wear / and improve durability
MULTI-BEAM XL connector assures you of
EXTRA LONG CONTACT WIPE
I
Power contacts feature up to 0.200′′ [5.08mm] minimum
wipe
I
Shortest “trigger” signal contacts feature a minimum wipe
of 0.100′′ [2.54mm]
I
MULTI-BEAM XL connectors provides
EXPANDABLE LENGTH connectors
I
Overall length is expandable to accommodate up to
36 power contacts
I
Contact spacings are expandable to accommodate higher
voltages and/or higher current requirements
Base metal made from high conductivity copper alloy
(over 98% copper) offers superior performance compared to
alternative materials (brass, phosphor bronze, beryllium
copper, etc.) often used in power connectors
