VPX6-6902 SRIO/Ethernet Switch
The VPX6-6902 is a combined management, control and dataplane switch for small, mid-size and large 6U VPX systems. Supporting a centralized switch architecture in both star and dual-star topologies, the VPX6-6902 is available with Serial RapidIO® (SRIO) switching alone, or with both SRIO dataplane and Ethernet mangement/control plane switching all in a single VPX slot. The VPX6-6902 SRIO switch fabric supports both Gen-1 (1.25, 2.5, 3.125 GBaud) and Gen-2 SRIO (2.5, 5, 6.25 GBaud) data rates. Each of it's 28x SRIO ports operates in x4 lane mode, offering up to 20Gbps throughput per port.
