PCI Express Cable Extender
PCI Express Cable Extender	Easy access to the PCI Express board under test from any angle Supports 5 Gbit/sec. bandwidth Supports live-insertion functionality Overcurrent protection Easy access to the PCI Express JTAG signals Patented mechanical support mechanism for stabilization of PCI Express boards (US Patent 7.255.570)

The PCI Express Cable Extender was designed to support the development and debugging of PCI Express boards. The PCI Express Cable Extender allows easy access from both sides of the PCI Express board that are plugged into the Extender. It has overcurrent protection and provides access to the PCI Express bus JTAG signals. By enabling access to the PCI Express bus JTAG signals, the PCI Express Cable Extender becomes a universal device that helps support the programming/loading of FPGA/CPLD during debugging and the verification PCI Express boards.
