New TRENTON PCI Express® Backplanes Expand PCIe 3.0 I/O Card Support
Atlanta, GA (PRWEB) September 09, 2014 -- Trenton’s BPG8194, BPG8155, and BPG8150 are our latest PCI Express® 3.0 backplane products designed for industrial workstations, servers, military computers and small form factor enclosures. These standard PICMG® 1.3 backplanes offer extended PCIe Express x16 plug in card support featuring the latest PCIe 3.0 high-speed, low data latency electrical interfaces. The backplanes form the backbone of rackmount computer systems that support are large number of high-performance commercially available off-the-shelf option cards commonly utilized in industrial and military computing, GPGPU servers and workstations, and video display wall controllers. The backplanes support a wide array of standard PICMG® 1.3 or SHB Express™ system host boards including Trenton’s popular dual processor BXT7059 and the upcoming THD8141 single-processor SHB. A system designed with a one of these backplanes, COTS PCI Express 3.0 option cards and a Trenton system host board brings longevity, speed, flexibility and faster Mean Time To Repair (MTTR) to industrial, medical and military computing applications.
Here is an abbreviated features list for the Trenton BPG8194, BPG8155 and BPG8150 PCI Express backplanes:
