XChange3021 3U VPX Switch
Overview
3U VPX PCI Express Gen3 and 10 Gigabit Ethernet Integrated Switch with XMC Support
The XChange3021 from Extreme Engineering Solutions is a conduction- or air-cooled, 3U OpenVPX™ integrated switch module supporting both PCI Express and Ethernet protocols.
The integrated PCI Express and Ethernet switch functionality allow XChange3021 to serve as the heart of inter-board communications inside a high-end OpenVPX™ system, and the external Gigabit Ethernet and/or 10 Gigabit Ethernet links provide connectivity between the OpenVPX™ system and the outside world.
