Not sure what this backplane board came out of but One Stop Systems makes some pretty high end stuff
This is another board with tons of gold that I can't place. None of the numbers on the board seem to turn up results but it comes from some piece of Cisco equipment. Still has some transformers need to pop off it.

This comes out of another piece of Cisco equipment, I think a Catalyst 4500 but I'm not positive.
This is a DCA 80-20048-000 IRMA. Gotta love a finger card that might grade higher than a finger card!
This is an Octel LAN Card 300-6049-001. Love how densely populated this one is!
This one is a Nokia and comes out of a cell tower box
Can't source this one either. With all this gold trace my guess would be telecom low for a board otherwise pretty much straight mid-grade.
This is from a transmitter module from a cell phone tower. Sooooo much gold on this one, grading a little complicated by the small plated stainless plates on the back side.

thats some hardcore scrapper porn for sure
The mother of all VCRs! All the boards here that take up more space than my liftgate allows are from a Sony Betacam SP BVW-70 Videocassette Recorder. I cleaned a couple of them but these are mostly before cleaning and include 2 power boards, 2 backplane boards (one quite large!), a couple of telecom boards, some mid-grade and, with the gold connectors on each of them, cards that I think go with fingercards (otherwise a mix of mid-grade) and a couple of low-grade boards (upright at the top corner). One card is missing from the photo that I'd dropped without noticing. It was a.....chore let's call it to disassemble. Nothing was easily accessible. You have to unscrew every screw, rotate it, unscrew every screw, rotate it, unscrew every screw, rotate it, ad infinitum. Several items were attached with screws on both sides. With practice might be able to disassemble on of these in less than a half-hour. Have six to practice with so.... Each unit also has a couple pounds of aluminum, a couple pounds of motors and maybe 1.5-2lbs of wire. Posting a little more info about this in the Scrap Room.

This is from some kind of projector, either a TV or a self-contained unit. The "DLP" logo is for TI's proprietary projection technology. I've noticed those boards are usually pretty nice but I am usually focused on the chip, itself.Originally Posted by JJinLV

Gonna reactivate this thread a little when I have time. First up is this RFL 9745 teleprotection channel. In addition to what is shown below, there is also a couple of power boards, a couple other small mid grade/peripheral cards and a modest quantity of ICW #2 35%. The case is aluminum, nearly all of which can be sold as Old Sheet or 98% clean. At current prices if you buy these for any less than say $.50/lb you'll make a tidy profit. We had to guess without the benefit of exemplar disassembly so guessed low around $.32/lb for 700~lbs. Worked out well. The one pic has two backplane boards but is only one per unit. The second is there to show the other side only.
