XChange3010

Four-Port VPX PCI Express Switch with Bridging to cPCI on a 3U VPX Module

The XChange3010 is a 3U conduction- or air-cooled VPX-REDI module that provides a means of bridging from a serial PCI Express VPX fabric and parallel 32-bit PCI bus. This allows a system designer to migrate to VPX processor cards or other modern VPX devices without forcing the redesign of existing CompactPCI peripheral cards.

The PCI Express switch may be configured so that any one of the four VPX ports, the XMC site, or the PCI bus is the root complex.

  • 3U VPX switch
  • Ruggedized Enhanced Design Implementation (REDI)
  • Conduction or air cooling
  • Four VPX x4 PCI-Express
  • Supports three cPCI peripheral cards when used with the XTend4010
  • Supports four cPCI peripheral cards if appropriate backplane is used and no PrPMC is placed
  • Any XMC/PrPMC card may be used as a system controller
  • Supports 5V/3.3V PCI VIO power
