Tested PXIe systems, chassis and controllers
This list of PXIe system components has been tested by Spectrum or Spectrum customers and is know to work fine with the Spectrum cards. As PXIe is very tightly specified in terms of electrical and mechanical design and cooling air flow it can be taken as nearly guaranteed that all components following the PXIe specification work together.
Chassis and backplane
Spectrum PXIe cards can fit into PXIe and also into PXI/PXIe hybrid slots. When calculationg space for the Spectrum PXIe cards please take the width of the cards into account:
- Spectrum M4x PXIe cards: 2 slots width
The backplane and the controller of the chassis define the maximum PCI Express lane configuration and generation. All Spectrum PXIe products are able to run with lower lane configurations down to x1 Gen1 while limiting data throughput then. To obtain maximum data throughput please check on the configuration below:
- Specturm M4x PXIe cards: x4 lane, Generation 2
PXIe chassis normally connect the single peripheral slots through switches with the system slot. Throughput for slots connected to the same PCI Express switch may be shared. Please check the chassis data sheet for more information on this
