Overview

The QTH-030-04-L-D-A is a high-speed, high-density terminal strip from Samtec's Q Strip series, featuring 60 positions across two rows on a 0.50mm pitch. It includes an integrated ground plane for high-speed signal integrity and a 16mm mated stack height when paired with compatible QSH sockets. This surface-mount header is designed with board alignment pins and is suitable for high-performance board-to-board interconnects.

Why Choose This Part

The integrated ground plane significantly reduces crosstalk and maintains impedance control for high-speed differential pairs. Its 0.50mm pitch allows for high pin density in a compact footprint, while the outer shroud and alignment pins ensure secure, keyed mating.

Applications

High-Speed Mezzanine Interconnects
Used for connecting secondary daughtercards to main system boards in high-speed computing environments.
Backplane Signal Routing
Ideal for routing high-density parallel data buses where signal integrity and ground plane isolation are critical.
Modular Industrial Systems
Provides a reliable, shrouded connection for modular PLC components or industrial computing modules requiring 60-position density.
