PCIe Cable Port Signals 

The external PCI Express SFF-8644 cable connector supports the following signals: 

 

PETpN/PETnN: PCI Express Transmitter pairs, 

labeled where N is the Lane number (starting with 0); “p” is the true signal 

while “n” is the complement signal.

 

 

PERpN/PERnN: 

PCI Express Receiver pairs, labeled where N is the Lane number (starting with 0); “p” is the true signal 

while “n” is the complem

ent signal. 

 

PWR: Power to support AOC and signal conditioning components within the cable assembly.  

 

MGTPWR: Power supplied to the connector for cable management components that are needed while the link is not 
active. This needs to be active if the subsystem has power.  

 

CBLPRSNT#: Cable present detect, an active-low signal pulled-down by the cable when it is inserted into the MXH930 
connector.  

 

CADDR: Signal used to configure the upstream cable management device address.  

 

CINT#: Signal asserted by the cable assembly to indicate a need for service via the CMI controller.  

 

CMISDA: Management interface data line. Used for both initial link setup and sideband messages when used with CMI 
compliant cables.  

 

CMISCL: Management interface clock line. Used for both initial link setup and sideband messages when used with CMI 
compliant cables.
