1.1 Overview
Figure 1-1: WSB-Q354 PICMG 1.0 CPU Card
The WSB-Q354 also comes with dual PCI Express (PCIe) Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) and has
flexible storage options including support for six second-generation serial ATA (SATA)
with SATA RAID configuration and a floppy disk drive (FDD). The WSB-Q354 provides
additional connectivity for one parallel, two RS-232 serial and up to seven USB 2.0
devices. Support for a (optional) trusted platform module (TPM) provides additional
system security during system boot-up.
