Product Information

The Technobox, Inc. P/N 6773 is a conduction-cooled adapter that permits the insertion of a single PMC into a PCI Express (PCIe/PCI-e) slot (4X). The adapter orients the ccPMC in a reverse manner such that the rear I/O from PN4 appears at the 68-pin SCSI-style connector installed on the adapter’s bracket. Furthermore, the reverse orientation of the card permits direct access to the standard front I/O (if any) within the host chassis. The differential pairing between PN4 and J1 adheres to VITA 46. A similar adapter - P/N 6768 - offers a standard differential interface.

A distinctive feature of the adapter is its substantial copper heat sink and fan. An on-board fan controller measures the temperature of the heat sink and adjusts the fan speed. A status monitor program provides temperature readings and a way to set fan parameters. Using a special cable (P/N 6351), any dumb terminal can be attached to the adapter via its on-board RS-232 serial port.
