1 Overview
1.1 Description
The OSS target backplane supports a PCIe Gen3 target cable adapter installed in the OSS target slot and one PCIe x16 expansion card installed in
the expansion / downstream slot. The slots are backward compatible and support Gen 1 and Gen 2 target adapters and expansion cards. Only
target adapters with the OSS target slot configuration are supported. Expansion cards designed to the PCIe PCI-SIG specification are supported.
While the backplane is used in the CUBE products, it can also be used in test applications as a stand-alone backplane with 12VDC power
applied.
