of NonStop S-series servers that allows a maximum of eight
processor enclosures (16 processors). The maximum number of I/O enclosures allowed
by the Tetra 16 topology varies depending on the release version update (RVU) and the
server model. Contrast with
tetrahedron
A solid bounded by four triangular faces. In ServerNet context, a tetrahedron is four
processors interconnected by ServerNet links so as to form a conceptual tetrahedron.
Each processor therefore has a direct connection to the other three processors. See
tetrahedral topology
A topology of NonStop S-series servers in which the ServerNet connections between the
processor
form a tetrahedron.
Token-Ring ServerNet adapter (TRSA)
A ServerNet adapter that provides a single line from a NonStop S-series server to a
token-ring network, allowing the server to act as a station on the ring. The 3862 TRSA
can be configured to support network speeds of 4 megabits/second (Mbps) or 16 Mbps,
and the media can be either shielded twisted pair (STP) or unshielded twisted pair (UTP).
