Low-profile mezzanine connectors carry up to 45 A per power contact

The PwrBlade MiniMezz series of connectors from Amphenol Communications Solutions supports a wide range of current requirements in space-constrained applications. 

The PwrBlade MiniMezz mezzanine connectors are supplied as vertical, through-hole receptacles and headers. Guide posts are a built-in feature of the housing to support blind-mate guidance. Optional PCB hold-down features can also be added for better retention. Mating height options range from 8 mm to 20 mm, and are tooled in 1 mm increments.

The connectors feature patented GCS^® plating for power contacts, and GXT^® plating for signal contacts, to optimize contact resistance.
