Amphenol FCI BarKlip® Power Cable Assemblies

Amphenol FCI BarKlip® Power Cable Assemblies are OCP 48V-compatible power cable assemblies for open compute power distribution architectures. These cable assemblies offer 0.05mΩ ultra-low end-of-life contact resistance and high reliability. Additional features include 50 mating cycles and an operating temperature range of -40°C to +105°C. The high current-carrying capabilities and customizable features enable use in a variety of power-dense data center applications. Typical applications for Amphenol FCI BarKlip Power Cable Assemblies include power shelves, baseband units (BBUs), server/storage sleds, and more.
