3M 8CS8 Low-Profile I/O Twin Axial Cable Assemblies are built with highly flexible, high-performance 3M twin axial cable technology. These cable assemblies offer high bandwidth and resonance-free signal integrity performance. The 8CS8 cable assemblies feature x8 configuration and thin ribbon cable constructions that allow easy routing in dense servers. These cable assemblies support extremely tight bend radii for unique server configurations. The 8CS8 cable assemblies support PCle® 4.0 applications and are compatible with most Amphenol® SlimSAS™ low-profile board mount connectors. Typical applications include a motherboard or controller to drive the backplane and mid-board.
