Amphenol ICC’s Micro Cool Edge NF1/NGSFF 0.50 mm is a small form factor card edge connector designed for enterprise and data center solid state drive (SSD) servers. It supports NF1/NGSFF (next generation small form factor) which can double the storage capacity and enable front side service within server systems compared to the M.2 standard. Vertical and right angle Micro Cool Edge has the same interface as orthogonal, which can be used inside the system for higher density applications. With 0.50 mm pitch, 67-pin, M key that is similar to the M.2 connector, Micro Cool Edge supports NVMe SSD and meets speeds up to 16 GT/s.
