IC-FIB-VPX6a – 16 fiber T+R Interfaces on Kintex7 6U VPX processing unit
The IC-FIB-VPX6a is an Open VPX 6U board, designed to provide a high number of front panel optical fiber inputs and outputs.
The board also provides various backplane connections, supporting several electrical standards. These interfaces are interconnected using a dedicated FPGA. The board takes advantages of the Kintex 7 FPGA features to enable high flexibility interconnection and to allow low level processing design.
