	Power Boards The Power Boards are separate boards for the power section of the backplane. They are used to facilitate pluggable power supplies, headers, and utility connectors.

	ATCA Test Extender (400mm) The ATCA extender board extends both the power and IPMB (Intelligent Platform Management Bus) signals. With a 10-layer stripline design, the extender is designed for the full populated fabric slot (5 ZD connectors, P20 thru P24) and the power connector J10. The Zone 3 section is served by a blind board assembled to Zone 1+2 through the frame.

	VXS Test Extender (240mm) VXS Extender Board with a rigid-flex-rigid PCB in place of a right angle receptacle. The solution entails a right angle pin connector that plugs into the backplane, connected to a flex circuit that wires to the straight receptacle to receive the plug-in board.

	VPX Load Board The Elma VPX load board is designed to be compliant with ANSI/VITA mechanical and electrical connection standards. Developed to enhance testing of VME systems, the load board aids the system designer in assuring adequate chassis cooling and verifying that the VME chassis is capable of meeting the power requirements of the system (or VITA specs).

	VPX Serdes Test Blade The DV3200 is an ultra low cost multi-lane Gbps serial test module that achieves unprecedented density and performance. The VPX test card vastly reduces the time, effort, and hardware investment needed to perform line card and backplane characterization of high-speed serial signals.

MicroTCA SerDes Test Module

The adoption of serial link technology in MicroTCA poses significant debug, characterization, and test challenges. The DMT1600 is an ultra low cost multi-lane Gbps serial test module that achieves unprecedented density and performance. With the DMT1600, you do not need to purchase equipment such as oscilloscopes, pattern generators, jitter analyzers, BERTs, clock generators, and analog function generators. The module allows the user to characterize the PCIe and SATA ports quickly and efficiently.

	Extender Boards, RTMs, Adapters Extender boards in VPX, VME64x, VME, cPCI, ATCA, VXS, MTCA, and VXI architectures. Designed to extend plug-in cards outside of the card cage area for easier testing. RTMs and adapters in various architectures. Form factor extenders in VME, VME64x.

	Load and SerDes Test Boards The load boards aid in verifying that the chassis can meet the power requirements of the system specifications, and helps the engineer locate hot spots in the chassis. The SerDes test modules directly evaluate true Gbps serial link BER performance inside the chassis.

	System Management & Monitoring Includes voltage, system, and shelf monitoring and management boards. Designed for various architectures.

	Power Interface & Filler Boards Power Interface Boards for pluggable power supply modules. Air blocker/filler boards that fill empty slots, jumper for busses like VME, and re-direct or contain airflow.

	Cabling Systems Elma Bustronic offers a VPX cabling system both deployed applications and test environments. Customized versions of the cable header shrouds can be designed for VXS systems. The cables are also offered for connecting our SerDes test units to VPX backplanes. An ATCA cabling system is also available for the testing the AdvancedTCA architecture.
