PCI Express® External Cabling 1.0 Specification
PCI-SIG announces the availability of the PCI Express®
External Cabling 1.0 Specification. This is a companion specification to the
PCI Express Base Specification. Its primary focus is the
implementation of cabled PCI Express. The discussions are confined to
copper cabling and their connector requirements to meet the PCI Express
signaling needs at 2.5 GT/s. No assumptions are made regarding the
implementation of PCI Express compliant Subsystems on either side of the
cabled Link; e.g., PCI Express Card Electromechanical (CEM),
ExpressCard(TM), ExpressModule(TM), PXI Express(TM), system board, or any
other form factor. Such form factors are covered in other separate
specifications.
