                Molex 106267 Series VersaBeam™
                        POD Cable Assemblies

Molex 106267 Series VersaBeam™ POD Cable Assemblies are low-profile, 12-fiber parallel optical device module cable assemblies (also known as PRIZM* LightTurn§ cable assemblies) and are designed to mate to Avago Technologies' 120 Gbps MicroPOD† and MiniPOD‡ parallel optic modules. The 1.80mm jacketed-round and bare-fiber-ribbon cable assemblies perpendicularly mate to the top of the optical modules, providing simple assembly and optimum airflow on the PCB. Multiple 12-fiber 106267 Series VersaBeam™ POD Cable Assemblies can be consolidated to a single I/O assembly on the front or back panel by using either 24-, 48-, and 72-fiber MT ferrules in Molex's high-density interconnects including HBMT™, Array and Circular MT connectors.

Features Innovative perpendicular mating interface with Avago Technologies' parallel optical modules for board-mounted, row or clustered layouts provides optimum airflow on the PCB and ribbon-cable management above the optical modules, provides improved density and fiber management compared to Small Form-factor Pluggable (SFP) and parallel optic transceivers and is capable of multiple re-matings to the Avago MiniPOD module Molex developed new process controls to meet the rigorous GR-1435 specifications for environmental testing required by telecom customers; cable assemblies meet Telcordia GR-1435 requirements required by telecommunications equipment providers; Molex is the first cable assembly supplier to meet these requirements 12-Fiber, 1.80mm jacketed round and bare-ribbon-fiber assemblies available; jacketed round cable allows cable to be routed in any direction while protecting the fiber during installation; the variety of cable options provides design flexibility

VersaBeam POD terminations can be aggregated to 24-, 48- and 72-fiber MT ferrules so that high-density connections can be achieved with Molex HBMT™, Array and Circular MT connectors Laser-cleaved collimated, expanded-beam ferrule interface provides excellent optical performance without the time consuming fiber polishing, cleaning and inspection requirements Molex is the only end-to-end solution supplier, from front-panel to blind-mate optical backplane applications; components are designed to work together for optimum performance ensuring functional end-to-end optical
