PCI Express-over-cable networking for 6 to 8 PCs

Products > PCIe-over-Cable > SuperSwitch

SuperSwitch enables you to network up to eight processors at higher speeds and lower costs than Ethernet or Infiniband solutions. SuperSwitch is used in many applications such as medical imaging, server farms, instrumentation, video and other applications requiring large amounts of data transfers from one processor to another.

One Stop Systems’ exclusive ExpressNet™ software suite allows direct data transfers as well as TCP/IP transfers between multiple processors. The software drivers initialize memory address translation registers in the non-transparent bridge components that allow data to be transferred from one CPU’s memory to another. With TCP/IP added, the interface is identical to a normal Ethernet port, except much faster. In addition to driver support, ExpressNet software handles hot-swap events and other networking functions. Currently, ExpressNet software support is available for Linux and Windows, with additional OS support following.
