VPX3-215

3U VPX Carrier Card for PMC/XMC Modules are available in levels 0 and 100 air-cooled and in levels 100 and 200 conduction-cooled variants.

Overview

To provide the flexibility required in today’s application environments, the VPX3-215 3U VPX carrier card comes in two I/O variants. The first provides a PMC/XMC site with 64 signals of PMC I/O mapped as 32 differential pairs, with 24 signals of XMC I/O mapped as 12 differential pairs, and two x4 lane PCIe ports which can also be configured as a single x8 lane port.

The second variant provides a PMC/XMC site with 64-bits of PMC I/O mapped as 32 differential pairs, and four x4 lane PCIe ports which are connected to the on-board PCIe switch and can be used to switch data between the ports.

Air-cooled cards are available in levels 0 and 100. Conduction-cooled cards are available in levels 100 and 200 and as a 2-level maintenance (LRM) configuration with ESD protective covers. On conduction-cooled , the XMC/PMC site adheres to the VITA 20- 2001 (R2005) conduction-cooled PMC standard specifications.
