P2 Connector Pin Out & Connections

- details of the P2 pin connections or pin-outs for the VXIbus backplane connectors including pin numbers and line names / functions.


VXI Technology Includes:
What is VXI test     Chassis / rack     VXIbus connectors & connections     Modules & cards     MXI    


The pin connections for the P2 connector contain a variety of signals.

The P2 connector extends the capabilities of the backplane and provides additoonal connectivity to the modules or cards that may use them.

The pin connections differ between Slot 0, used for controllers, and the remaining slots 1 - 12 used for other cards and modules.

These pin connections are detailed in the tables below for slot 0 and then for slots 1 - 12.
