Mezzanine Side Board Options
The PC7-FESTIVAL is provided with several stacking connectors for attachment of a mezzanine
expansion module (aka side board), suitable for a variety of readily available mezzanine cards (for a
more comprehensive overview, please refer to www.ekf.com/s/mezzanine_connectors.pdf). EKF
furthermore offers custom specific development of side boads (please contact sales@ekf.de).
Most mezzanine expansion modules require an assembly height of 8HP in total, together with the
CPU carrier board (resulting from two cards at 4HP pitch each). In addition, cropped low profile mass
storage mezzanine modules can be attached to P-HSE, which maintain the 4HP envelope, for
extremely compact systems.
New from PCB Rev. 2022 off: Expansion Connector GBE for passing 2 x 2.5GBASE-T to J2, as an
option with P82 low profile mezzanine module.
