    59 WARP v3 includes a FMC HPC slot for connectivity to other hardware. This connector is mechanically very solid, and care must be taken to brace the WARP board when connecting an FMC module.
     59WARP v3 includes a FMC HPC slot which can host an FMC module (a.k.a. FMC daughtercard). The FMC connector requires considerable force to mate and separate boards. It is essential you brace the WARP v3 board when mounting/removing FMC modules, to avoid flexing the PCB and breaking solder joints under the FMC connector and FPGA.
