PRODUCT OVERVIEW
2.3.2 GT200 PCI Features
The major GT200 PCI card features are listed below:
• PCI Short form factor requiring one single slot in the computer chassis
• Bus support for 33 MHz/66 MHz PCI operation for 32/64 bit buses
• 3.3-volt or 5-volt PCI signaling voltages available
• Supports concurrent network and host accesses with no loss of network data or
need to implement network flow control
• Status LEDs that report link status
• Broadcast and unicast network interrupts for user-level signaling and node
synchronization
• Two Small Form Factor Pluggable (SFP) media options available— short
wavelength laser (850 nm) and long wavelength laser (1300 nm)
• 2.5 Gbps fiber-optic interface with redundant transceiver option for network
topology redundancy
• Operates with the LinkXchange family of switches (2.5 Gbps or faster).
