Frequently Asked Questions
How is dimensional accuracy verified before shipment of SFP+ structural parts?
CZT performs 100% visual inspection and sampling-based CMM dimensional inspection on all SFP+ structural part shipments. Critical dimensions — including cage mating surfaces, latch slot positions, and PCB standoff heights — are measured against approved drawings, with results documented in outgoing inspection records.
What is the hardness range of the die-cast alloy used in these parts?
Zinc alloy (Zamak 3/5) die-cast parts typically achieve a Brinell hardness of 82–91 HB, providing good wear resistance at latch and guide rail contact points. Aluminum alloy variants (e.g., ADC12) achieve 70–90 HB, offering a lighter alternative where weight is a design constraint.
Can CZT supply SFP+ structural parts with integrated EMI shielding features?
Yes. Die-cast metal housings inherently provide EMI shielding. CZT can incorporate design features such as spring finger slots, conductive gasket grooves, and shielding tabs into the casting to enhance EMI containment, meeting the shielding effectiveness requirements of the host system design.
