Optimized for the Mediterranean telecom hub and the thriving tech parks of Catalonia, these precision-engineered I/O cages deliver exceptional electromagnetic interference (EMI) suppression and thermal management.
Barcelona is positioning itself as the critical Southern Gateway for European data traffic. Supported by the deployment of massive undersea fiber optic cables landing at the Barcelona Cable Landing Station (CLS) and the aggressive scaling of the 22@ Innovation District, Catalonia's network demands have transitioned toward ultra-high density and low latency. Furthermore, institutions like the Barcelona Supercomputing Center (BSC-CNS)—which houses the powerful MareNostrum 5 supercomputer—require cutting-edge hardware architecture.
Within this digital renaissance, physical layers such as high-performance I/O interconnect systems are critical. 1xN ganged port cages represent the standard for saving real estate on printed circuit boards (PCBs) while ensuring optimal thermal management. System integrators, local telecom providers, and IoT hardware developers in the Barcelona Metropolitan Area require robust, EMI-shielded SFP+ and SFP28 1xN cages (ranging from 1x2, 1x4 to 1x8 ports) to accommodate higher speeds, up to 28 Gbps per channel.
Whether upgrading industrial automotive IoT networks in nearby Martorell, enhancing telecom backhaul systems, or expanding regional edge datacenters, local enterprises require cost-effective, high-reliability alternatives to major connector brands, with guaranteed delivery, RoHS/REACH compliance, and drop-in compatibility.
To understand the performance advantages of 1xN ganged ports, we look closely at mechanical integrity, material science, and high-frequency electric field containment.
When multiple high-speed optical transceivers operate in close proximity inside a 1xN ganged cage, electromagnetic radiation is generated. This can lead to crosstalk between adjacent ports and external EMI emissions that violate European EMC Directive 2014/30/EU.
Our cages leverage copper alloy (typically phosphor bronze or brass) with nickel plating (ranging from 1.27µm to 2.54µm). To block the escape paths of electromagnetic waves at high frequencies (up to 28GHz), we use advanced EMI finger designs and stainless steel external springs. The compliance pin structure (Press-Fit/Eye-of-the-Needle) ensures that mechanical force is evenly distributed across the PCB, securing the cage assembly during repeated transceiver insertions and extractions (up to 100 cycles minimum).
Choosing the correct mounting style is critical for assembly efficiency and post-production repairability:
As procurement departments in Spain and the broader EU look to diversify and build resilience against supply-chain disruption, direct factory access offers an effective path forward.
Operating from a state-of-the-art facility, Zyqora Optical Technologies Co., Ltd. represents the next generation of precision manufacturing. While global brands are often slow to respond to low-to-mid volume custom requests, our nimble infrastructure allows us to ship directly from our production floor, cutting out middleman markups.
With 10 years of industry expertise, our engineers cross-reference industry-standard parts (such as TE Connectivity and Amphenol SFP/SFP+ cages) to provide drop-in replacements. We maintain a reliable supply network containing more than 860 supply chain partners, ensuring that copper alloy raw materials, plating processes, and light pipes are secured against market fluctuations.
This resilience enables us to support Barcelona-based distributors and integrators with consistent lead times, full engineering documents, and complete compliance documentation (including REACH, RoHS, and CE certifications) for international markets.
Every production batch undergoes strict quality control to guarantee performance in critical data lines:
Our 1xN ganged ports are designed for key regional industries, helping system engineers integrate them into localized hardware designs:
In Catalonia’s automotive cluster, factories utilize ganged ports on their automation edge servers. High-vibration environments demand through-hole THT solder cages to ensure constant data connectivity for automated guided vehicles (AGVs).
Smart port applications require environmental resistance against salt spray and moisture. Our nickel-plated SFP cages with external EMI springs deliver durability and protection against marine atmosphere corrosion.
For high-density networking in compute nodes, 1x4 and 1x8 ganged SFP+ cages optimize board space, while custom-designed heatsinks manage heat loads inside chassis units.
Integrated light pipes simplify field servicing. Network operators can easily check port activity from the rack front panel, minimizing downtime across municipal optical networks.
