A high-density universally-configurable system board architecture for use with multiple mid-board optic (MBO) type configurations is provided. The system board comprises a switch application specific integrated circuit (ASIC) assembly, a plurality of MBO interfaces comprising a plurality of via-in-pad plated over (VIPPO) vias, and a plurality of mounting holes. Each MBO interface is configured to mate with a soldered-down MBO assembly or a socket instance comprising a socketized MBO assembly. Each socketized MBO assembly comprises an interposer comprising a plurality of VIPPO vias, where the bottom contact pad of each VIPPO via is thicker than the top contact pad. Either configuration is facilitated without the need to modify the system board layout.

The present disclosure provides a circuit board with a first via and a second via, the first and second vias providing an electrical path from a top surface of the circuit board to a bottom surface of the circuit board. The circuit board also includes a first contact pad electrically coupled to the first via and a second contact pad electrically coupled to the second via. The first contact pad is disposed at an angle with respect to a reference line crossing through the center of the first and second vias, and the second contact pad is disposed on an opposite side of the reference line at the angle with respect to the reference line, such that a footprint that encompasses an area between the first and second contact pads does not cover the first and second vias.

What is described is a system for generating a web site. The system and method consists of a web server to service HTTP requests received from users and a database connected to the web server. The database determines which particular user community the requesting user is assigned to. A dataset of stored branch description files describes particular web site structures to be used for each of the user communities.
