The Xenie BB carrier board is a prototyping platform for evaluation and testing purposes of Xenie based family modules. The carrier board is ideally equipped for testing 10 GBASE-T Ethernet solutions, 10 GBASE-SR, 10 GBASE-LR and SDI (Serial Digital Interface) up to 12G. The carrier board provides flexible clocking options with two fixed or programable clock generator.
