CHIPSET
Maximum CEDQCX and CEDQCX-EM performance in dual processor applications is achieved with the independent system bus feature of the Intel® 5000P chipset. The chipset also enables 16GB (CEDQCX/CESQCX) or 32GB (CEDQCX-EM/CESQCX-EM) system memory SHB configurations. Other chipset features include configurable server-class PCIe link configurations, a four-channel DDR2 FBDIMM interface and 1066/1333MHz system bus support.
THREE ETHERNET INTERFACES -10/100/1000BASE-T
The CEDQCX series of SHBs offers advanced Ethernet connectivity that supports two Gigabit Ethernet ports on the board’s I/O bracket. RJ-45 connectors on the I/O bracket provide the mechanical interface to these Ethernet networks. A third Gigabit Ethernet interface is routed to edge connector C of the SHB for use on a PICMG 1.3 backplane.
SERIAL ATA/300 PORTS
The integrated Serial ATA (SATA) controller provides six SATA ports with data transfer rates up to 300MB/s. Independent SATA drive operation and RAID 0, 1, 5 and 10 drive array configurations are supported on the CEDQCX series of SHBs. SATA Systems provides lower pin counts, reduced signaling voltages, simplified cabling, CRC error detection and hot-plug device support.
DDR2-667/533 FB-DIMM MEMORY
The DDR2-667/533 Fully-Buffered DIMM (FB-DIMM) interface is a four-channel interface originating at the Memory Controller hub with each channel terminating at four FB-DIMM module sockets on the CEDQCX and CESQCX SHBs. The CEDQCX-EM and CESQCX-EM SHBs have eight FB-DIMM sockets. The SHBs use ECC registered PC2-5300 or PC2-4200 FB-DIMMs. The CEDQCX/CESQCX SHBs support a maximum memory capacity of 16GB, while the CEDQCX-EM/CESQCX-EM boards feature an extended memory capacity of 32GB. The peak memory interface bandwidth per channel is 8.0GB/s when using the PC2-5300 FB-DIMMs.
SUPER XGA INTERFACE
Core CEDQCX-series SHBs are equipped with the ATI ® ES1000 video controller. The external memory chip used with the ES1000 provides 16MB of on-board video memory. The video controller supports pixel resolutions up to 1280 x 1024 (SXGA). Software drivers are available for popular operating systems.
TEMPERATURE/ENVIRONMENT
Operating Temperature: -0° to 60° C. (2.13GHz LV CPUs)
Operating Temperature: -0° to 45° C. (All other processors)
Storage Temperature: -40° to 70° C.
Humidity: 5% to 90% non-condensing
MECHANICAL
In a typical backplane, the cooling solution used on the CEDQCX series of SHBs enables placement of option cards approximately 2.38” (60.45mm) away from the top component side of the SHB. The standard memory versions of the SHBs (CEDQCX and CESQCX) have overall dimensions of 13.330” (33.858cm)L x 4.976” (12.639cm)H. The relative PICMG 1.3 SHB height off the backplane is the same as PICMG 1.0SBC due to the shorter PCI Express backplane connectors. The extended memory versions, models CEDQCX and CESQCX, have overall dimensions of 13.330” (33.858cm)L x 5.726” (14.544cm)H.
