RoHS-Compliant Small Form Factor Pluggable Press-Fit Cage,
2.19 mm Pin Length
PL-KP2-00-000-16
Key Features
• Compatible with all MSA-compliant SFP transceivers and
PCB layouts for single and double sided applications
• Enhanced EMI performance at datarates above 4Gbps
• RoHS-compliant and lead-free
Applications
• Switch and hub devices
• Mass storage systems interconnect

• Enterprise switch interconnects
The unique lead-free and RoHS-Compliant, pluggable, press-fit cage represents one
of JDSU’s complementary products to the Small Form Factor Pluggable (SFP) trans-
ceivers. Its patented design enables enhanced EMI performance using improved
shielding between the cage and bezel. Optimized for use with all transceiver prod-
ucts complying with the SFP multisource agreement (MSA), the cage design allows
for low-cost implementation using standard manufacturing processes. Its hardened
spring-tempered material, plus excellent material memory characteristics, further
provide for consistent transceiver mate/de-mate performance that provides for port
flexibility over the life of the system.
Highlights
• Industry’s most robust and sturdy cage design optimized for all SFP
applications, including Fibre Channel, Gigabit Ethernet, and SONET
• Enhanced EMI performance due to improved mechanical shielding
• Supports all industry SFP transceivers, using MSA-compliant board layouts and
hole sizes for single and double sided applications
• Extensive compatibility testing with industry-wide MSA-based modules for
interoperability in multiple vendor implementation
• Backward compatible design offers superior mechanical stability, simplifying
implementation to customer PCBs
• Tested for common applications and standard industry processes to allow seamless
integration into manufacturing without additional equipment or requirements
• Excellent material memory characteristics provide for high cage retention to
PCB, reducing field failures due to cage pull up
