Abstract

The second generation of ServerNet expands on the capabilities of the ServerNet I system area network. ServerNet II maintains the scalability and availability features of ServerNet and continues to be a cost effective way to connect large clusters of commodity servers. ServerNet II is a 125MB/s full-duplex, switched, wormhole-routed network, operating over standard 1000BaseX cabling. ServerNet II maintains complete compatibility and interoperability with existing ServerNet I components.
