Example: Connecting the Summit T2-16 Analyzer to the
Device Under Test Using a Gen2 Active Interposer
Summit T2-16 Components
Summit T2-16 components used in the installation are:
•
iPass Y-Cable: The cable supports eight lanes from two directions. Side A of the
probe cable connects to the Upstream port on the Analyzer (on the left in the photo
above), and Side B of the probe cable connects to the Downstream port (on the
right).
Note: x16 recordings require two cables.
•
Summit T2-16 x16 Slot Gen2 Active Interposer: The slot Interposer provides the
point of attachment for the Analyzer to the Device Under Test (DUT). The Interposer
is designed to fit between a motherboard and one of its device cards - for example,
a LAN card. The Interposer has three sets of connectors: a gold male connector that
fits into a standard x16 PCI Express slot on a motherboard, a black female connec-
tor that accepts a x16 PCI Express device such as a graphics card, and two Inter-
poser cable connectors that connect the Interposer to the Analyzer.
Note: Edge reducers are required for lane widths less than x16.
