Abstract

A converter assembly comprises a backplane interface to a backplane compliant with a first open architecture modular computing system standard, a component interface capable of coupling to a component compliant with a second open architecture modular computing system standard, and a control element. The control element is coupled between the backplane interface and the component interface and is capable of programmably routing connection lines and signals between the component interface and the backplane interface.
