Connectors: Zone 2

ZONE 2
Zone 2 (ZD) defines five backplane connectors, J20 through J24, which support the data
transport interface. The KAT4000 is a Base node board supporting two Base channels,
therefore only the J23 connector is installed to support the 10BASE-T, and/or 100BASE-TX,
and/or 1000BASE-T Ethernet. Connector J20 is also used for the optional Update Channel
and synchronization clock interface. Each connector provides 40 differential signal contact
pairs, with each pair carrying an individual L-shaped ground contact. The ZD-style connec-
tor provides three levels of sequential mating, the third and shortest signal level is not used
with PICMG 3.0 backplanes. The Zone 2 connector array supports four different interfaces
to the ATCA backplane:
• Base Node Interface (J23) supports two Base channels
• Fabric Interface (J23) supports two Fabric channels (The fabric interface connection is
controlled by the system E-keying process)
