[Ron Miller]
It will do the job efficiently once the models are installed, especially if
there are no active components.

[Ron Miller]
ADS and MDS have models for this. For many parallel paths as in a multi-pin
connector in multi rows, the Picosecond Modeling Suite is needed

[Ron Miller]
It can use Behavioral/IBIS models, spice models, Measured S-Parameters
and there are over a hundred transmission line models that only need tthe
physical dimensions, and dielectric constant and dissipation factor.
