The NI 779157-01 is a right-angle InfiniBand connector engineered for high-speed data transfer in National Instruments data acquisition and high-performance computing systems. This 12X InfiniBand connector with 73-pin signal plus ground configuration enables construction of custom-load boards for LVDS test and measurement applications. Its right-angle, surface-mount design optimizes PCB real estate in space-constrained installations while maintaining signal integrity through impedance matching and minimal crosstalk.
