Expand ROCK-2 Ecosystem with Configurable Switch, Carrier Combo

The CB3P-6231 is a 3U OpenVPX™ PCIe® switch PMC/XMC carrier board (VITA 46.9) for use with Mercury’s ROCK-2 subsystem. The CB3P-6231 carrier offers PCIe Gen1/Gen2/Gen3 lane switching capability between PMC or XMC connectors and the backplane. Designed with BuiltSAFE™ technologies, the CB3P-6231 is available in commercial air-cooled and rugged conduction-cooled configurations to meet lab to field applications requirements.
