- don’t pay for fancy stuff you do not need now,
- but stay safe for FUTURE upgrades to PCIexpress at no extra cost by
- facilitated backplane re-use up to ETXexpress®
The ETXexpress® is the strategic successor. From a technical point of view a big portion of ETX® customers (especially the lower power consumption market segment) is forced to take all the advanced functions on the ETXexpress® which they might not need them TODAY
The microETXexpress could buffer the transition for those lower-power ETX® user BEFORE they adapt to ETXexpress® and to spend over-budget for them. microETXexpress will have no PCIexpress lane and forms a temporary solution to those customers that don‘t need ETXexpress® TODAY
The microETXexpress enables a smooth transition from ETX® to ETXexpress® as Kontron aims @ ETXexpress® for long term.
Kontron will bring the microETXexpress to the PICMG® and we need more supporters.
