How to face the connector 5G challenge trend?

In the past, traditional connectors had only three performances: mechanical equipment performance, electrical equipment performance and natural environment performance. With the advent of 5G, with the advent of the times, high-speed transmission technology connectors are also responsible for converting electronic signals and light signal lights. important task.

In addition, the interface mode of the capacity grid is gradually changing to wireless network transmission. The transmission of natural, higher and low latency time is the innovation of big data in the Internet of Things technology, which will inevitably make the overall design scheme of goods more complicated, but the overall cost still needs to be operated within a certain range. Therefore, the connectors meet the challenges of high precision, high reliability, and miniaturization to reduce costs. In fact, the challenges are not limited to this...

In early June, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology sent 5 companies G commercial license plates to China Telecom, China Mobile, China Unicom, and China Radio, Film and Television. China announced that it has entered the 5G commercial year. It is understood that TE, as a solution for high speed, heat rejection performance and EMI/SI natural environment industry and its demanding independent innovation manager, is cooperating with various 5 industries around the world G wireless communication machinery equipment OEM manufacturers and cloud services Providers work closely together and 5G applies 5 solutions and expertise to successfully arrange the Internet.

The challenges facing connectors are far greater than imagined

The release of data information shows that by the end of 2023, the number of 50G subscribers worldwide will exceed 1 billion, and 2020 will also become an important time for 5G to announce commercial deployment. IDC predicts and analyzes that 5G and 5G in May 2018, the related Internet infrastructure construction and sales market will increase from 2.8 billion US dollars to 26 billion US dollars in 2022, with a compound growth rate of 118%. At that time, not only the construction of 50%G infrastructure such as connectors, the total number of communication base stations, optical fiber lines, and optical modules will also be greatly improved, and the sales market will have a broad indoor space. However, in order to seize this wave of opportunities, the challenges facing connectors are far greater than imagined.

The challenges encountered by the connector at this stage are reflected in three aspects - the reliability of the commodity, the flow and the miniaturization. In addition, the safety factor, effect, energy consumption and environmental pollution of commodities must also be considered and dealt with.

In the future, 5G will be used to improve broadband (eMBB), high reliability and low latency communication (uRLLC), and massive device communication (mMTC). This requires very wide network bandwidth, very high transfer speeds, very reliable low-latency connections, and, in addition, a large number of device types to connect to the Internet.

In order to consider a large amount of data and information transmission, many components are integrated together, in order to better complete the coverage distance and increase the relative output power, so the heat transfer is beyond imagination, so the relative density requirements, heat transfer requirements, and reliability requirements of the docking plug-in, Speed regulations clearly present higher technical challenges than ever before.

Dealing with challenges doesn't mean the end

The advantages of millimeter wave depend on the large network bandwidth and the transmission rate as fast as the wind, but it has the disadvantage of data signal attenuation coefficient. Now, in the deployment of Sub-8GHz, the sales volume of millimeter wave has accounted for more than 20%. What should I do as a connector manufacturer?

From the perspective of network deployment, 5G is based on a fusion method of seamless splicing and coverage based on the accumulation of millimeter waves. Since millimeter wave transmission is easily affected, it is more suitable for gathering large cities to complete long-distance transmission, so the layout points of millimeter wave will be more diverse.
