Traditionally, many connectors of this type are produced
using liquid crystal polymers (LCPs) formulated with carbon
fiber.
Meet targeted cost-performance requirements – The
selected resin must offer significant savings over the
current LCP/carbon fiber formulation through material
and/or manufacturing savings, thus enabling penetration
of the low-cost computer market with a competitive
connector.
