Description
The AMC242 is an AMC form factor which routes 16 lanes from the backplane to the front. The module is agnostic to the protocol, any protocol such as PCIe, SRIO, 40GbE, 10GbE, GbE, Aurora, etc. could be routed between the backplane and the front panel.
When operating at 40G, AMC242 is not recommended for configurations where backplane trace length from the signal source is greater than 2”/5cm, e.g. in 1U chassis. For such applications consider AMC240 or similar. Contract VadaTech sales for details.
The AMC242 has option for 4/8 SFP+ or 2/4 QSFP+. The QSFP+ ports have four lanes of TX/RX.
