Introduction
Product Description
The AFW-3000 Intel®Xeon?Server Motherboard is based on the
Intel®ET7501 chipset. With two 184-pin DDR memory sockets, up to
4GB of memory is supported. A dual-channel DDR-200/266 memory
interface provides amaximum memory bandwidth of 3.2 GB/s through a
144-bit wide, 200/266 MHz Double Data Rate SDRAM memory
interface with densities up to 512 megabits is supported.
The Intel®Xeon™ Processor provides exceptional performance for
applications running on advanced operating systems and delivers
unparalleled computing power for powerful workstations, internet
infrastructure, and departmental server applications. The Intel®
NetBurst™ micro-architecture and Hyper-Threading Technology
deliver outstanding performance and headroom for peak internet server
workloads, resulting in faster response times, support for more users,
and improved scalability.
The on board Intel®E7501 Chipset Memory Controller Hub (MCH) is
the central hub for all data passing through core system elements such as
the dual Intel Xeon™ processors with 512 KB L2 cache via the system
bus interface, the memory via memory interface, and both the 64-bit
PCI/PCI-X and I/O controller hubs via Intel®Hub Interfaces.
AFW-3000 Features:
lSupports Intel®Pentium®4Xeon™ Processor
lIntel®E7501 Chipset with P64H2 Hub Link to PCI-X
l533MHz Front Side Bus
lTwo 184-pin DDR sockets, 4 GB Max Size
lTwo Intel®82546EB Dual 1-Gigabit port PCI-X 64Bit Single
Controllers
lSupports four (4) RJ45 connectors or four (4) fiber channels
lUSB 1.1, ATX P/S, PCI-X slot, MicroPCI connector, CF card
connector
This Server Motherboard represents the perfect choice for those who
want superior performance for rugged and demanding applications in
industrial automation, telecommunications and data-intensive
applications.
