The BPG8155 PCI Express backplane, when paired with a PCIe 3.0 capable single board computer like the BXT7059, delivers PCIe Gen3 link speeds and expanded I/O card bandwidth to military computing, industrial automation, medical, telecommunications and GPU computing applications. This backplane supports one PICMG® 1.3 single board computer and up to twelve PCI Express I/O cards. Eleven of these option card slots are PCIe 3.0 capable. Each option card slot uses a x16 PCIe mechanical connector to maximize system design flexibility by supporting a wide range of standard PCI Express I/O cards.
