The CorEdge Networks CEN-CLK-PS clock/SATA module serves two separate functions on a single card
• PCI-Express (PCIe) clocking functions
• SATA crosspoint switch for SATA data point-to-point connectivity
Clocking function
PCI-Express requires a reference clock with programmable spread
spectrum. CEN-CLK-PS provides this capability.
SATA crosspoint switch
The CEN-CLK-PS provides a 12-port non-blocking low-latency
SAS/SATA programmable crosspoint switch fabric. The switch
fabric allows software reconfiguration of point-to-point links
between a host processor and a disk drive.
