²ÝÝ®ÊÓƵ's family of PCI Express Expansion products deliver a simplified yet high-speed method of securely adding system I/O cards to an existing host server. These new products provide a x16 PCIe link from your host server to any of ²ÝÝ®ÊÓƵ's PCIe Expansion chassis. Industry standard PICMG 1.3 backplanes are used in the PCIe Expansion chassis to offer maximum inter-operability and the widest selection of PCI Express, PCI-X and PCI I/O option card support available today.
"²ÝÝ®ÊÓƵ's PED8044 target card employs the latest x16 PCI Express switch technology to ensure low data packet delivery latencies and end-to-end data protection, said Brad Trent, Director of Engineering at ²ÝÝ®ÊÓƵ. "Likewise the x16 PCIe Gen2 link re-drivers employed on the PEU8039 host card ensures maximum x16 PCIe signal integrity over the one or three meter cable length between the host server and the PCIe expansion chassis."
²ÝÝ®ÊÓƵ's new PCI Express expansion solutions are ideal for communications, industrial automation, test & measurement, video processing and government & defense applications that require more I/O capability than is offered within a commercial-grade rackmount server.
