The Concurrent Technologies PP 412/03x is an intelligent dual PMC carrier built on the CompactPCI form factor. It accommodates two PMC (PCI Mezzanine Card) modules with one site also supporting XMC modules via x8 PCI Express. Powered by Intel Core 2 Duo processors and the E7520 server-class chipset, this board delivers high-performance computing in rugged industrial, telecom, aerospace, and scientific applications. It operates in system, peripheral, or independent slots within a CompactPCI backplane and provides a direct upgrade path for legacy Concurrent Technologies boards including the PP 410/03x, PP 312/01x, PP 310/01x, and PP 110/01x.
