NEC HMC‑25B

Metal-coated connector module with contact points and electromagnetic shielding. Used in industrial or telecommunication equipment. Suitable for recycling – contains a significant amount of palladium and a small amount of gold. Siemens

Gold-plated AGP contacts are often one of the most valuable parts of a circuit board. Using an XRF device with the precious metals function, gold content can be estimated quickly and reliably. If the reading shows less than 20% gold, it typically indicates around 5000 ppm – helping recyclers and buyers make fast, data-driven decisions during sorting.

Gold-plated AGP contacts are often one of the most valuable parts of a circuit board. Using an XRF device with the precious metals function, gold content can be estimated quickly and reliably. If the reading shows around 10% gold, it typically indicates around 2000 ppm – helping recyclers and buyers make fast, data-driven decisions during sorting.

Gold-plated AGP contacts are often one of the most valuable parts of a circuit board. Using an XRF device with the precious metals function, gold content can be estimated quickly and reliably. If the reading shows less than 5% gold, it typically indicates around 500 ppm – helping recyclers and buyers make fast, data-driven decisions during sorting.

Used Infineon RF power amplifiers for high-frequency signal transmission, now recycled for gold and cooper.

Used Huawei SFP transceiver modules for high-speed network connections in data centers and telecom. Decommissioned and assessed for precious metal recovery (gold, silver, palladium, copper). (2015)

Silver plated BNC connectors with low gold content

Silver and a large amount of gold were found in this mix of gold-plated connectors
