Bull's Eye Connector
The development board comes with Samtec's Bull's Eye system, which includes four
SMA cables along with the insertion tool to insert the cables into the connector.
The Bull's Eye high-density RF interconnect system allows many channels to be
compacted into a small area on a printed circuit board at a comparable performance to
SMA connectors. The cables allow you to monitor only two differential signals at a
time. You can move the cables from one channel to another using the tool included
with this board.

You can order more cables from www.samtec.com and these cable systems can be
reused on other boards.

For specific instructions on how to install the connector to the board and insert the
cables into the connector, refer to
Samtec's web page regarding this system.
