Abstract

A mid-plane board including a first connector configured to receive a first signal from a first circuit board is provided. The mid-plane board includes a second connector configured to provide the first signal to a second circuit board. The first circuit board forms a first plane and the second circuit board forms a second plane, and the first plane and the second plane are substantially parallel. The mid-plane board also includes a cutout configured to allow a coplanar connector to bridge the mid-plane board and provide a second signal from the first circuit board to the second circuit board. The second signal is a high-end signal and the first signal is a low-end signal, and the mid-plane board is disposed on a plane substantially orthogonal to the first circuit board and the second circuit board.
