Intel® Server Board S2600IP and Intel® Workstation Board W2600CR TPS Functional Architecture
Revision 1.1 25
Intel order number G34153-003
3.2 Processor Functions Overview
With the release of the Intel
®
Xeon
®
processor E5-2600 product family, several key system
components, including the CPU, Integrated Memory Controller (IMC), and Integrated IO Module
(IIO), have been combined into a single processor package and feature per socket; two Intel
®
QuickPath Interconnect point-to-point links capable of up to 8.0 GT/s, up to 40 lanes of Gen 3
PCI Express* links capable of 8.0 GT/s, and 4 lanes of DMI2/PCI Express* Gen 2 interface with
a peak transfer rate of 5.0 GT/s. The processor supports up to 46 bits of physical address space
and 48-bit of virtual address space.
The following sections will provide an overview of the key processor features and functions that
help to define the performance and architecture of the server board. For more comprehensive
processor specific information, refer to the Intel
®
Xeon
®
processor E5-2600 product family
documents listed in the Reference Document list.

QuickPath Interconnect
The Intel
®
QuickPath Interconnect is a high speed, packetized, point-to-point interconnect used
in the processor. The narrow high-speed links stitch together processors in distributed shared
memory and integrated I/O platform architecture. It offers much higher bandwidth with low
latency. The Intel
®
QuickPath Interconnect has an efficient architecture allowing more
