Available as a mezzanine add-on expansion board to the CCG-RUMBA and successor CPU cards, the CCK-MARIMBA provides a number of additional I/O functions. First of all, the CCK-MARIMBA itself is a carrier board,
suitable for accommodation of either a single width PMC or XMC module.
The additional SATA/PATA controller is useful for attachment of mass-storage devices, either on-board mounted, or externally (by cable).
Furthermore the CCK-MARIMBA is equipped with a SIO, which provides legacy I/O ports, such as serial, parallel, KB/MS (all available across rear I/O).
A secondary Firmware Hub can be configured as alternate- or backup-BIOS.
