Product Description
Performance Technologies CPC4416F CompactPCI Ethernet Switch Board – PICMG 2.16 Compliant
This used Performance Technologies CPC4416F is a CompactPCI (cPCI) Ethernet switch board designed for high-availability telecommunications and defense systems. Engineered for the PICMG 2.16 (Packet Switching Backplane) standard, this board served as the central fabric for routing Ethernet traffic between blades in a single chassis. Performance Technologies was a recognized name in telecom computing solutions.
Condition Note: This board is untested and sold as-is. It is a pull from surplus telecom or defense equipment. No software, cables, or documentation are included unless specified.
