RSL Connector
The SMT387 includes a single 28-pin (14-pair) RSL connector.
The connector is referenced on the PCB by J3 (See
Figure
10: SMT387 Components
placement-Top view).
16 pins (8 pairs) of the RSL connector are routed to the FPGA in all available
configurations of SMT387.

Features:
High-speed socket strip: QSE-014-xx-DP on the SMT387, mates with QTE-
014-xx-DP
PCB adapters with QTE connectors on one side and QSE on the other are
used for connecting 2 TIMs.

RSL Cable Assembly
Cable assemblies with QTE connectors on one side and QSE on the other are like
the flexible versions of the PCB adapters mentioned above.
RSL Interface
The RSL connectors are the fastest FPGA connections available on SMT387.
As RSL are based on RocketIO transciever blocks, the speed is limited by the speed
grade of FPGA installed:
