PCIe CEM 5 Right Angle Connector Amphenol 10161952 1210LF Supporting High Current Power Applications
Product Overview
Amphenol ICC introduces the Gen 5, Minitek Pwr PCIe connector system, featuring the CEM 5.0 PCI Express 12VHPWR auxiliary hybrid connector and cable assembly. This system is designed to support 600W GPU cards and is not compatible with legacy PCI Express 2x3 and 2x4 12V Auxiliary Power connectors due to differing pin pitches (3.00mm for 12VHPWR vs. 4.20mm for legacy). The new CEM-5 connector system is engineered for power applications, offering a current rating of up to 9.5A per pin with 12 energized power pins and 4 signal pins for data transmission. Key applications include AI, cloud gaming consoles, graphic interfaces, networking, computing systems, and server/storage solutions.
