Asynchronous, 133MHz, 64-Bit PCI-X to PCI-X Bridge for Servers, Storage,

Telecommunication, Networking and Embedded Applications and High

Performance 10KB Buffer PCI-X-to-PCI Bridging

PLX’s FastLane™ PCI 6520 is a 64-Bit PCI-X-to-PCI-X bridge designed for high

performance, high availability applications in PCI-X-to-PCI conversion, bus expansions

and frequency conversions bridging. The PCI 6520 has sophisticated buffer management

and buffer configuration options designed to provide customizable performance

optimization.

The FastLane PCI 6520 has sophisticated buffer architecture designed to provide very

efficient PCI-X-to-PCI conversion bridging. The PCI 6520 allows up to 2KB prefetch

during each PCI read.
