The Serial RapidIO PCI Bridge provides the capability to bridge between Serial RapidIO and PCI. It is part of a family of bridge devices aimed at applications wishing to take advantage of the Serial RapidIO interconnect.
Serial RapidIO is a switched data communication standard developed for the interconnection of devices on the same circuit board or between circuit boards across a backplane at rates in excess of 10Gbps. It has been developed as a more cost-effective, standards based replacement for expensive proprietary busses in high-performance embedded systems, such as networking and communications equipment and enterprise storage.
