Capable of data-transfer speeds as high as 3 Gbits/s, the Metral 4000 high-speed backplane connector supports signals for up to 16 SerialATA ports. The board-interface version is a 30-position ...
Copper backplane interconnects, struggling to meet the needs of high-speed backplane communications, are presently stuck at about 10 Gbits/s. In fact, most systems work at just 3 Gbits/s. To go any ...
With more connections being packed into backplanes, signal integrity becomes a concern. However, misconceptions have arisen around solving this problem. Elma Electronic's Ovidiu Mesesan sets the ...
