The 173916 Erni backplane is used in CompactPCI computer systems. Its high performance features make it ideally suited for telecom, datacom, and industrial applications like CNCs robotic controls, and video image processing. The inherent limitations of CompactPCI are minimised by the use of a PCI-to-PCI bridge.
This backplane may be used to implement a two-bus multiprocessor system if equipped with a nontransparent bridge module.
