hi kris, there's a samtec connector on the roach with 40 LVDS pairs. you can buy a cable from samtec that connects two roaches together using this connector. (i think it's a samtec "QSH" connector). there's also a ZDOC to VSI connector board developed by haystack observatory for VLBI. you can plug these boards into roaches and then connect them together with a VSI cable. best wishes, dan On 01/25/2010 06:55 AM, Kristian Zarb Adami wrote:
Dear all, Has anyone tried connecting 2 ROACH-boards together over the Z-DOK connectors? The reason I'm asking is that it would be useful for our correlator project to get more bandwidth onto the ROACH boards and it would be really useful for us if we could use the Z-DOK connectors for communicating between ROACH boards. thanks for any help regards, Kris
