Technical Product Specification

Intel® Server Board S1400FP TPS Functional Architecture
Revision 2.0 Intel order number G64246-003 27
 Non Transparent Bridge: PCI Express* non-transparent bridge (NTB) acts as a
gateway that enables high performance, low overhead communication between two
intelligent subsystems; the local and the remote subsystems. The NTB allows a local
processor to independently configure and control the local subsystem, provides isolation
of the local host memory domain from the remote host memory domain while enabling
status and data exchange between the two domains.
 Intel
®
QuickData Technology: Used for efficient, high bandwidth data movement
between two locations in memory or from memory to I/O.

The following sub-sections will describe the server board features that are directly supported by
the processor IIO module. Features and functions of the Intel C600 Series chipset will be
described in its own dedicated section.
