With the PQIII’s integrated PCI-X, DDR SDRAM, and Ethernet interfaces, the PQIII offers a highly optimized solution for packet processing and general computing applications. The serial and gigabit Ethernet interfaces are accessible either through the front panel or P14 I/O. An SO-DIMM DDR SDRAM memory slot provides flexible field upgradability.
For performance systems, XPedite5000 can be used as an XMC in which the 500MHz 8-bit RapidIO interface can be used in accordance to VITA 42 in parallel or in substitution of the 133MHz, 64 bit PCI-X 1.0a, PCI 2.2 compliant interface.
