\begin{itemize}
\item{Break out VHDCI to extension boards}
\item{Carry signals over VHDCI between crates \begin{itemize}
\item{With one for each of two crates, serves as a low-cost
and low-latency alternative to \mbox{DRTIO} for some applications}

\section{General Description}
The 1008 VHDCI Carrier is a 4hp EEM module, part of the ARTIQ/Sinara family. It is a passive adapter card which converts VHDCI connects to or from EEM connections.
The 1008 VHDCI Carrier is bidirectional; it can be driven by a core device carrier board, or can drive other cards.
A pair of VHDCI Carrier cards can be paired with VHDCI SCSI-3 cables to carry EEM signals over short distances between crates. Depending on the application, this can serve as a simple, low-cost, low-latency alternative to multiple core devices and ARTIQ DRTIO.
