    The Virtex&amp;reg;-7 FPGA VC709 Connectivity Kit is a 40Gb/s platform for high-bandwidth and high-performance applications containing all the necessary hardware, tools and IP to power quickly through your evaluation and development of connectivity systems. This includes a 40Gb/s targeted reference design featuring PCI Express Gen 3, a DMA IP core from Northwest Logic, 10GBase-R, AXI, and a Virtual FIFO memory controller interfacing to an external DDR3 memory. To control and monitor this design, the kit includes a connectivity GUI built on Fedora Live OS which includes all the software drivers. Additionally, this kit contains two fiber optic cables and four transceiver modules leveraged by this design.
    &lt;/div&gt;

    The Virtex&amp;reg;-7 FPGA VC709 Connectivity Kit is a 40Gb/s platform for high-bandwidth and high-performance applications containing all the necessary hardware, tools and IP to power quickly through your evaluation and development of connectivity systems. This includes a 40Gb/s targeted reference design featuring PCI Express Gen 3, a DMA IP core from Northwest Logic, 10GBase-R, AXI, and a Virtual FIFO memory controller interfacing to an external DDR3 memory. To control and monitor this design, the kit includes a connectivity GUI built on Fedora Live OS which includes all the software drivers. Additionally, this kit contains two fiber optic cables and four transceiver modules leveraged by this design.

    The Virtex&amp;reg;-7 FPGA VC709 Connectivity Kit is a 40Gb/s platform for high-bandwidth and high-performance applications containing all the necessary hardware, tools and IP to power quickly through your evaluation and development of connectivity systems. This includes a 40Gb/s targeted reference design featuring PCI Express Gen 3, a DMA IP core from Northwest Logic, 10GBase-R, AXI, and a Virtual FIFO memory controller interfacing to an external DDR3 memory. To control and monitor this design, the kit includes a connectivity GUI built on Fedora Live OS which includes all the software drivers. Additionally, this kit contains two fiber optic cables and four transceiver modules leveraged by this design.

    The Virtex&amp;reg;-7 FPGA VC709 Connectivity Kit is a 40Gb/s platform for high-bandwidth and high-performance applications containing all the necessary hardware, tools and IP to power quickly through your evaluation and development of connectivity systems. This includes a 40Gb/s targeted reference design featuring PCI Express Gen 3, a DMA IP core from Northwest Logic, 10GBase-R, AXI, and a Virtual FIFO memory controller interfacing to an external DDR3 memory. To control and monitor this design, the kit includes a connectivity GUI built on Fedora Live OS which includes all the software drivers. Additionally, this kit contains two fiber optic cables and four transceiver modules leveraged by this design.
