Enhance Performance and Manageability Through Scalable High-Bandwidth PCI Express

Overview

Ever-increasing network traffic creates bottlenecks in the existing parallel, multi-drop architecture of Peripheral Component Interconnect (PCI) bus systems. Today, PCI Express* architecture uses a 2.5-GHz serial I/O structure to provide higher bandwidth and far better scalability than previous architectures, improving network performance.
