I am looking for a board that plugs into a PCI slot, has a PCI-to-PCI
bridge (plus what ever other support logic is needed) and then has 3 or
more PCI slots. Mechanically this board would plug into a PCI slot
on a motherboard, stick up into the air, and have a number of PCI
slots on it.
I am aware of products from Bit3 and Magma that logically accomplish
this
task but they are more complicated and expensive than what I need.
Specifically they supply a PCI board for the host with a special
interface,
a cable, another board for an expansion chassis, and an expansion
chassis.
We have a lot of mechanical flexibility on the product we are working on
and want something much simplier (and less costly), basically a single
board
with a PCI connector on its edge, a PCI-to-PCI bridge, and PCI slots.
We
don't want cables, additional circuitry to buffer the PCI bus across a
cable, etc.
Does anyone know of any product(s) fitting this description?
Thanks.
