About the PCI-SB StarFabric® PCI Interface Card

2-4 PCI-SB StarFabric PCI Interface Card Installation Guide

Basic StarFabric Connectivity

The PCI-SB card provides the bridge functionality that enables your primary PCI

bus to seamlessly, transparently and simply expand into a StarFabric network, as

shown in Figure 2.

FIGURE 2. Using the PCI-SB Card to Add Two StarFabric-enabled

Expansion Devices

This enables a host device with a PCI-SB card installed to connect to many differ-

ent types of StarFabric-enabled devices such as Aurora’s XP-SG Series PCI bus

chassis or other StarFabric-enabled, application-specific devices such as card read-

ers, cash registers, or item scanners.

All components on the remote StarFabric-enabled chassis appear as part of the pri-

mary bus when viewed from the host side of your PCI topology.

Remote StarFabric-enabled expansion units may require clocking and bus arbitra-

tion from an external source.
