FCS(TM) 266 Sbus Adapter [Ancor Communications Inc]

The Ancor FCS 250 Sbus adapter provides a high-performance link forworkstations, processors and peripherals on an ANSI-standard fibrechannel fabric (such as the Ancor CXT 250 fibre channel switch).The FCS 250 Sbus interface adapter features an Ancor ASIC (VHSCI) forhigh-speed fibre channel protocol translation. An embedded i960 processorcontrols all fibre channel data transfers and speeds performance throughbus-mastered DMA transfers. RAM data buffering improves networkutilization and end-to-end throughput.TCP/IP driver software is optimized for low-latency, high-bandwidthcommuication. Reliable, streamlined direct-channel communication, a lightprotocol which by-passes TCP/IP, is also available. Direct channeloperation is ideal for parallel processing, workstation clusters, storagenetworks and data-intense, peer-to-peer applications.The fibre optic interface is provided by a 266 megabaud shortwave laseroptical link card (OLC). The OLC supports 50 and 62.5 micron multimodefibre using SC connectors.FCS 250 Sbus Adapter Features:* ANSI Fibre channel standard * 25megabytes/second data rate* Full bus-master implementation * 2 megabytedata buffer* 40/80 megabyte/second bus transfer * Solaris(R) drivers* i80960CF I/O processor * IndependentIOP and bus operations* Class 1,2,3 and Intermix Fibre Channel ops * Ancor VHSCI ASICfibre channel interface
