TRENTON PCI Express 2.0 Backplanes Deliver System Flexibility in Industrial Computing Applications

BPC7041 and BPC7009 industrial backplanes deliver maximum PCI Express interface speeds for a wide variety of COTS option cards and single board computers.

The Trenton BPC7041 and BPC7009 industrial backplanes are now available for use in military & aerospace, virtualization and video display systems. These compact backplanes maximize high-performance computing flexibility by supporting up to eleven PCI Express 2.0 and PCIe 1.1 COTS option cards is an industrial computer. The backplanes also support a wide array of PICMG 1.3 single board computers including Trenton's JXT6966 featuring the latest quad-core Intel Xeon processors. A system designed with a BPC7041 or BPC7009 backplane, COTS PCI Express option cards and a JXT6966 SBC provides the speed, performance, flexibility and faster Mean Time To Repair (MTTR) critical in diverse applications such as military surveillance, video display walls, machine vision, silicon wafer manufacturing and medical diagnostic systems.
