Introduction
Teledyne LeCroy's 90 Degree Server Interposer for the Summit™ PCI Express line of protocol analyzers solves the problem of tapping
PCI Express 4.0 signals that are transmitted between an add-in card and the riser card mounted in the narrow I/O compartment of 1U
and 2U rack servers. There are two versions of the interposer: a 90 Degree Left angle interposer and a 90 Degree Right angle interposer.
The interposer to be used depends on the server configuration.
The 90 Degree Server Interposer card is based on Teledyne LeCroy's T.A.P.4 (Transparent Acquisition Probing) technology for PCIe 4.0
for the Summit T416 and T48. The interposer is ideal for 1U and 2U server testing in that the PCI Express connector is mounted
perpendicular to the surface of the interposer, instead of attached at the top of the interposer. Add-in cards can now easily connect to the
interposer without interference by the internal structure of the chassis. The 90 Degree Server interposer supports connectivity to full
height or standard size add-in cards. Teledyne LeCroy's protocol test tools have long been at the forefront of PCI Express development
tools. All Teledyne LeCroy protocol analyzers feature a hierarchical display, real-time statistics, protocol traffic summaries, detailed error
reports, powerful scripting, and the ability to create user-defined test reports, which allow developers to troubleshoot intricate problems
and finish their projects on time.
