Abstract :
We have demonstrated PCIe optical connections over fiber up to 300m distances. Due to their high bandwidth, low weight, immunity to EMI interference, and ruggedness of the electrical connector interface, PCIe Active Optical Cables present many advantages over copper cables in avionics applications.
