3. KEY FEATURES
The GigMAC (PMC and PCI), GigPMC-switch and GigPCI-E switches offer the following
key features:
• Sustained throughput of 245 Mbytes/sec (1.96 Gb) per port over PCI bus using
64-bit, 66 MHZ PCI
• Sustained throughput of 118 Mbytes/sec (944 Gb) per port over PCI bus using
32-bit, 33 MHZ PCI
• Frame processing rate of up to 1,000,000 frames per second (as measured on 2
GHZ P4/Zeon running Linux 2.4 kernel)
• Very low latency, < 2 microseconds for short frames
• Support for copper and fiber interfaces
• Driver support for vxWorks and Linux including embedded Linux
• Built in management and diagnostics capabilities in drivers
• High-performance frame generator (wire and bus-speed capable)
• Performance and health monitoring statistics
• 64-bit PMC and 64-bit PCI/PCI-X low-profile card adapter form factors
• Supports 33 and 66 MHz, 32 and 64 bit PCI interfaces including PMC form factor
• Support for 133/100/66 PCI-X in Models 5262-(LC,SC,RJ), 5263-SFP, 5264,
5468, 6162 and 6267-SFP
• Support for “x8” 8-lane PCI Express in Models 6468
• Installs in any PCI or CompactPCI system with a PMC, universal PCI/PCI-X or
PCIe slot
• Ideal solution for CompactPCI and embedded 1U and 2U PC-based systems
• Utilizes either 5 or 3.3 volt pci bus power supply and contains onboard power
regulators
• Full duplex Gigabit Ethernet Interface over standard CAT5e cabling
• Complies with all PCI revision 2.2 mechanical and electrical requirements
