MAGMA PCI Express to PCI Expansion System

MAGMA PCI Express to PCI Expansion System

(March 7, 2006) Mobility Electronics, Inc. is pleased to announce a new
Magma PCI Express to PCI Expansion Chassis. The Magma PCI Express to PCI
Expansion System provides a simple, cost-effective solution for expanding
the capability of PCI Express based computers by adding PCI slots. As
computer manufacturers migrate to PCI Express, the number of available PCI
slots has been reduced or completely eliminated. However, many companies
have a substantial investment in configurations built around conventional
PCI and PCI-X hardware. The new Magma expansion system provides an
economical migration path to PCI Express based computers while providing a
method to protect investments in PCI hardware.

PCI Express to PCI Expansion Chassis

The PCI Express to PCI Expansion Chassis (Model PE6R4) is the link from PCI
Express architecture to PCI hardware. The new expansion chassis provides
six PCI slots in Magma’s standard 4U rack-mount enclosure. The host
connection is through a 4 lane (x4) PCI Express host card. A pair of
Infiniband=F4 cables connects the PCI Express host card to PCI expansion
chassis. This product is compatible with PCI Express based Windows, Mac OS
X and Red Hat Linux computers.
