The acquisition section of the GEN7iB is based on the successful and proven GEN
series Data Acquisition System.
In GEN7iB the same concepts are used.

6.3.1 PCI-e/CPCI backplane
GEN7tA/GEN7iB uses a combined PCI-e/CPCI backplane. The PCI-e (Peripheral Compo-
nent Interconnect Express) backplane can transfer data at very high speeds to ensure
the highest system throughput. The CPCI (Compact Peripheral Component Intercon-
nect) backplane can transfer data at high speeds to ensure a high system throughput.
GEN7iB has a combined support on the rst three slots of the mainframe:
A, B and C. All other slots are PCI-e only!
The CPCI backplane is the standard data storage bus. All acquisition cards introduced to
market before 2014 support only this backplane. The maximum aggregate streaming rate
for these acquisition cards is 200MB/s.
