The PMC677RCTX is a PMC designed to offer maximum 1000 Mbit Ethernet connectivity on four channels. Using 10/100/1000BaseT, the PMC677RCTX is capable of full duplex operation. The Ethernet/PCI interface includes a powerful DMA engine with 64 KBytes deep FIFO buffers. This assures continuous, full bandwidth operation with minimum PCI overhead.
Two PMC677RCTX boards can be directly cabled with a simple Ethernet cable. This configuration creates a full duplex 2000 Mbit dedicated data path (for each port) - delivering high bandwidth at very low cost. More complex, dedicated interconnects can be created using a hub or switch. Both pointto- point and switched hubs, in full duplex mode, remove many determinism concerns raised with traditional Ethernet solutions. This makes the PMC677RCTX an excellent candidate for high performance interconnects that require real time determinism.
Software Support
Software drivers are available for most popular operating systems including VxWorks®, Linux®, LynxOS, Microsoft® Windows® NT and Solaris. These drivers have been carefully designed and implemented to fit within the LAN protocol stack of the host operating system. All facilities available from the host operating system can be used across the PMC677RCTX.
