Available as a mezzanine add-on expansion board to the CCG-RUMBA and CCM-BOOGIE CPU cards, the CCL-CAPELLA provides a number of additional I/O functions. First of all, the CCL-CAPELLA is a powerful Ethernet networking machine, with up to four independent low power Gigabit Ethernet controllers. Each GbE port can be individually routed either to a front panel jack, or the rear I/O connector, by software controlled
switches (BIOS setup).
The additional SATA/PATA controller is useful for attachment of mass-storage devices, either on-board mounted, or externally (by cable or via rear I/O).
The optional FireWire ports are practical e.g. for vision systems with mixed 1394a and GbE type cameras, and is especially useful for quality-of-service demanding and isochronous applications.
Furthermore the CCL-CAPELLA 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. Another option available is the Trusted Platform Module according to TPM 1.2 for safety critical applications.
