4.1
OSS-PCIe-HIB616-x16 card
A pair of OSS Gen4 x16 cards, one as host card and the other as target card.
4.2
SFF-8644 Gen4 x4 Cable
Use Gen 4 PCI Express (PCIe) rated cables. This passive copper cable mates to the SFF-8644 connectors on the HIB6xx family of
OSS host interface board. Tested and validate with 1m, 2m and 3m lengths. Single or multiple cables can form larger PCIe links.
o
x4 (1 cable)
o
x8 (2 cables)
o
X16 (4 cables)
Use PCIe Gen 4 (BLACK plastic-pull tab), see photo below. The FPGA in the HIB616-x16 card does not support CMI operations.
