TE Connectivity 2198224-1 Compatible SFP+ 1x2 Cage Assembly Technical Overview

The TE Connectivity 2198224-1 is a 1x2 ganged SFP+ cage assembly with integrated 4.2mm pin heat sink and conductive elastomeric EMI gasket designed for TE Connectivity 2198224-1 compatible applications in 10Gb/s Ethernet and 16Gb/s Fibre Channel platforms. Featuring solderless press-fit PCB mounting, a nickel silver alloy housing, and peripheral elastomeric gasket shielding, it provides effective heat dissipation, structural port retention, and seam-free grounding for enterprise switches, SAN storage, and telecom enclosures.

  • Mechanical Form Factor: 1x2 Ganged Single-Row 2-Port SFP+ Cage Assembly with pre-installed 4.2mm [.165 in] pin heat sink (Lightpipe-free profile).
  • Signal Ecosystem Support: Engineered for SFP+ Enhanced optical transceivers and Direct Attach Copper (DAC) cables operating up to 16 Gb/s (SFF-8431, 10GbE, and 16G Fibre Channel).
  • Board Mount Technology: Solderless Through-Hole Press-Fit termination with 2.05mm tail length, optimized for standard 1.5mm [.059 in] PCB substrates.
  • Alternative Sourcing Option: Multi-source engineering options are available to support secondary sourcing strategies, BOM cost optimization, and supply chain flexibility.

How to Select and Verify an SFP+ Cage Assembly Replacement

When evaluating or sourcing 1x2 ganged SFP+ cage assemblies with elastomeric EMI gaskets for new line card designs or supply chain diversification, hardware engineers should verify the following core parameters:

  • EMI Shielding Type (Elastomeric Gasket vs External Springs): Confirm whether your chassis bezel cutout design is optimized for conductive elastomeric gaskets (which provide continuous gapless sealing and environmental dust protection) or metallic spring fingers.
  • Recommended PCB Board Thickness: Ensure the 2.05mm tail length matches your target motherboard thickness (TE 2198224-1 is optimized for standard 1.5mm PCBs).
  • Heat Sink Height & Thermal Budget: Verify that a 4.2mm [.165 in] pin heat sink height fits within your chassis vertical clearance while providing sufficient thermal dissipation for your target transceivers.
  • Port Density & Panel Cutout: Ensure a 1x2 side-by-side (ganged) footprint aligns with front-panel bezel cutouts and host board SMT connector contact pitch.
  • Mechanical Drawing Verification: Check grounding gasket compression tolerances, press-fit hole layouts, and pin locations against official engineering drawings when qualifying alternative suppliers.
