  • Support under AIX SMIT and diagnostic routines

  • Supports remote IPL and NIM with the appropriate system firmware

  • Connects to fiber FDDI concentrator ports using fiber optic cable with an 

FDDI SC (low cost fiber) connection

5.1.4.2  PCI SysKonnect SK-NET FDDI-LP DAS (# 2742)
This fiber optical FDDI dual-attach station adapter provides either dual 
attachment to the main ring path or dual homing to one or two FDDI 
concentrators using fiber optic cabling (not supplied with the adapter). It also 
offers high speed, low latency, low CPU and bus utilization, and occupies a 
single PCI bus slot.

Features include:

  • Occupies single PCI bus slot

  • Compatible with the FDDI-ANSI X3T12 specification and FDDI Standard 

Series

  • SMT 7.3 compliance

  • AMD SUPERNET3 single chip FDDI design

  • SysKonnect-designed custom ASIC for buffer management with minimal 

CPU and bus load

  • Four independent 128-byte FIFOs for buffering between PCI bus and 

buffer memory

  • 128 KB static RAM on board

  • Support under AIX SMIT and diagnostic routines 

  • Supports remote IPL and NIM with the appropriate system firmware

  • Connects to fiber FDDI concentrator ports using fiber optic cable with an 

FDDI SC (low cost fiber) connection

5.1.4.3  PCI SysKonnect SK-NET FDDI-UP SAS (# 2743)
This copper FDDI single-attach station adapter provides single attachment to 
a FDDI concentrator (or point-to-point) using Category-5 unshielded twisted 
pair (UTP) cabling (not supplied with the adapter).

Features include:

  • Occupies single PCI bus slot

  • Compatible with the FDDI-ANSI X3T12 specification and FDDI Standard
