Description
The NAT-MCH-PCIex48 HUB-Module is an AMC.1 compliant module for the NAT-MCH that allows PCIe Gen 3 connectivity for up to 12 AMCs at PCIe rates from x1 to x4. The PCIe chipsets provide a quality of service (QoS) module and are configurable in terms of a non-transparent port for multi-host support.
Thus, the board enables users to add scalable high bandwidth, non-blocking interconnection to a wide variety of applications including servers, storage, video streaming, blade servers, and embedded control products.
The NAT-MCH-PCIex48 supports full non-transparent bridging functionality to allow implementation of multi-host systems and intelligent I/O modules. Moreover, it provides clustering support for six independent clusters with one configurable non-transparent upstream port. Each cluster offers its own transparent upstream port.
A PCIe clock at HCSL signaling level can be provided by a spread spectrum clock (100MHz mean) or a fixed 100MHz clock.
