The UltraFLEXplus has been developed to provide many platform and instrumentation advancements. Leveraging these advancements for network switch devices, such as higher power supply density and digital vector memory enhancements, allows for increasing site count and therefore throughput. Successfully navigating the transition from UltraFLEX to UltraFLEXplus including increasing site count, requires thoughtful planning and knowledge of best practices which this paper aims to address. The information shared in this paper is based on a successful project conversion from UltraFLEX single site to UltraFLEXplus dual sites for a networking device. This will include a set of requirements to begin the conversion, suggested steps to follow for the conversion, typical challenges experienced and how to work through them or avoid them, as well as tips during hardware debug. The requirements consist of exactly what information you’ll need to have ready to start the process. Suggested steps will cover power supply selection and channel assignment, test program conversion, pattern conversion, and debug challenges.
