Model 4207  (147)
The Pentek Model 4207 PowerPC(TM) VME/VXS I/O Processor board targets embedded applications that require high performance I/O and processing. With two PMC/XMC module sites, the 4207 offers powerful one-slot solutions with nearly unlimited high-speed connectivity.

Uniquely Designed for Connectivity



The 4207 supports numerous interfaces

including VME64x, Gigabit Ethernet, RS-

232 and dual 4 Gbit Fibre Channel. A unique

crossbar switch architecture connects the

XMC module sites, optical and VXS connectors,

fibre channel interface, FPGA, and

processor to high-speed gigabit serial data

paths. All interfaces can be included without

exceeding one VMEbus slot. Some processing-

intensive applications may require two

slots for optimized convection cooling.



Zero Latency Crossbar Switch



The 4207 features a zero-latency fabric-transparent

crossbar switch that bridges

various board interfaces and resources via

gigabit serial data paths. Programmable

signal input equalization and output preemphasis

settings enable optimization for

each application.



Gigabit serial paths include links to the

processor that can be used for 4X Serial

RapidIO. Other gigabit paths are not

restricted to any protocol, and include two

4X links to each XMC module site, two 4X

links (or four 2X links) to the FPGA

RocketIO ports, and another pair of 4X

links to the optional P0-VXS connector.

The switch also provides high-speed connectivity

to the optional Fibre Channel

controller and front panel optical gigabit

serial interface.
