Advances in optical interface technology boost performance levels to help meet increasing data rates and signal bandwidths. New specifications define how to deploy these optical links within open industry standards, affording improved interoperability and supporting future upgrades. Offering many advantages over traditional copper connections, optical links will boost data rates, improve signal integrity and security, and greatly extend distance between system components.
Pentek's Flexor Model 5973 3U VPX Virtex-7 FMC carrier is the industry's first VITA 66.4 optical backplane product. Samtec FireFly optical transceivers deliver data rates up to 12 GB/sec full duplex to the backplane supporting a wide range of protocols implemented within the FPGA.
