Tx/Rx SignalBlade
This ATCA compatible test card offers the flexibility to verify the performance of Advanced TCA fabric and base channels. The set of four Transmit pairs and four Receive pairs allows access to a full channel's eight pairs for backplane path characterization.
The card includes a HM-ZD connector segment for access to the backplane and edge-launch SMA connectors for ease of test cable attachment. DC blocking capacitors are included on the receive pairs as required by Advanced TCA.
