Duobinary encoding enables error-free, 56Gb/s transmission

Using duobinary encoding over a channel including the ExaMAX high speed backplane connector, FCI has successfully demonstrated an error-free transmission at a data rate of 56Gb/s. ExaMAX connectors combine speed, superior signal integrity performance and low crosstalk while eliminating insertion loss resonances.

The connector is suitable for next-gen applications including hubs, switches, routers, optical transport servers, external storage systems, super computers and emulation equipment.

The 56Gb/s ExaMAX high speed backplane connector system features a revolutionary beam-on-beam contact interface that minimises the residual stub for improved signal integrity performance compared to typical blade-on-beam contact structure. It also provides exceptionally low mating force while maintaining excellent contact normal force.

In collaboration with the Ghent University INTEC Design group, the ExaMAX 56Gb/s backplane demonstrator will be presented at DesignCon today.
