Overview

This chapter provides hardware preparation and installation instructions for the CPCI-6115-
MCPTM transition module.

The CPCI-6115-MCPTM transition module provides additional I/O capabilities to the CPCI-
6200 SBC. The transition module is installed directly in the CompactPCI backplane in the rear
transition board bay of the chassis and interfaces with the CPCI-6200 SBC through the J3 and
J5 connectors.

Rear panel connectors on the CPCI-6115-MCPTM include one of two configurations: two RJ-45
connectors for 10/100/1000BaseTx Ethernet and one RJ-45 connector for asynchronous serial
port, COM1 (CompactPCI version); or four RJ-45 connectors for asynchronous serial ports,
COM1, COM2, COM3 and COM4 (MXP version). Only COM1 and COM2, however, are available
on the CPCI-6200 SBC for use with the transition module. An additional two serial ports and the
one EIDE channel are available on J3 and J5 from the baseboard.

The transition module supports two single-wide (74mm wide by 69mm long) PMC I/O
modules. PMC I/O pins 1 through 64 of each PMC slot on the CPCI-6200 SBC are routed from
the J3 and J5 connectors to the PMC I/O (PIM1 and PIM2) on the transition module. For a
detailed description of PMC I/O modules refer to the section titled
