"The EC.
8's direct plugin principle enables data transmission speeds of up to 28 Gbit/s.
In contrast to conventional connectors, direct connectors minimise a wide range of impediments such as direction changes, reflections and cross-section changes, resulting in clear signal transmission.

60-mm daughter card thicknessApplicationsEmbeddedIndustrial automationDatacomThe direct plug allows direct contact on the PCB without a corresponding mating plug.
Compared to female multi-point-/male multi-point connectors there are fewer contact points and transitions, which has a positive influence on current carrying capacity and data transfer properties.
