The VIAVI Solutions Xgig5P-PCIe5-X16-E3 Interposer for PCI Express® 5.0 is optimized for developing, debugging and performance-tuning NVMe SSD operation in high-density storage servers. Bidirectional PCIe 5.0 protocol data on 16-lanes can be captured at 32GTps for analysis.

Benefits

  • Quicker NVMe SSD or CXL EDSFF debugging for faster time-to-market
  • Provides consistent, repeatable capture of link training, equalization negotiation and other data 
  • Faster analysis and problem isolation
  • Quicker time to market and earlier revenue
  • Reduced engineering costs

Applications

  • Developing, debugging and performance tuning NVMe SSD operation in high-density storage servers
  • Verification of new PCIe or CXL controller ICs, new server designs, firmware tuning, and manufacturing test
  • Validation of system BIOS and software

Highlights

  • Operates up to 32GT/s, PCIe 5.0 data rates
  • Downward compatible with PCIe data rates of 2.5, 5.0, 8.0 and 16GT/s
  • Supports 1 link of 4 or 8 lanes or 1 link of 16 lanes
  • EDSFF E3.S or E3.L NVMe SSD DUT (not supplied) plugs directly into the Interposer
  • Includes high-quality, custom cables for Analyzer connection
  • Data path uses high-speed linear redrivers to ensure good signal capture with little or no tuning
  • Supports Analyzer side-band signal capture and triggering with display in multiple formats
  • The supplied power brick makes interposer power is independent of host system
  • Works together with the VIAVI Xgig 5P8 and 5P16 PCIe 5.0 Analyzer/Exerciser/Jammer chassis
  • Supported by Xgig tool suite including Trace Control, Expert™ and Serialytics™
