ECG078/0698 TECHNOLOGY BRIEF (cont.) ... board (slot 10/11 SCSI ports 1, 2, and 3) where the buses are cabled to the three internal drive cages. This eliminates cabling between the controller and I/O board. Slots 5 and 6 on PCI Bus 2 are shared with an embedded dual-channel SCSI controller (SCSI ports 2 and 3). Slots 3 and 4 on PCI Bus 1 are shared with the Standard Peripheral Board. The aggregate peak data transfer rate across the three PCI buses is 532 MB/s. Because of the high bandwidth of the three PCI buses, PCI bus load balancing is not required. The system interlocks provide a closed-loop checking mechanism for verifying proper component mating and cabling interconnects between critical server components. Three LEDs on the I/O board can be used to isolate improperly mated components. To protect critical components, the server will not power up if the interlock is broken. 64-bit PCI Hot Plug with Extended SCSI 64-bit PCI Hot Plug 32-bit PCI Hot Plug ISA Modem Slot Slot 10/11 SCSI Ports 1, 2, 3 65 PCI 9 8 7 Bus 2 11 10 PCI Bus 3 43 PCI Bus 1 1 2 Figure 4: I/O Board.
