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 Passive Interposer: The slot Interposer provides
the point of attachment for the Analyzer to the Device Under Test (DUT). The Inter-
poser 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 con-
nector that fits into a standard x16 PCI Express slot on a motherboard, a black
female connector that accepts a x16 PCI Express device such as a graphics card,
and two Interposer cable connectors that connect the Interposer to the Analyzer.
